Build LLMs from Scratch
Found this gem from Vizuara, a 43-lecture series that actually delivers on its promise: building Large Language Models from the ground up.
What’s inside: → Transformer architecture → GPT internals → Tokenization (BPE) → Attention mechanisms → Complete Python implementations
Perfect for ML engineers and developers who want to understand what’s really happening under the hood of ChatGPT, Claude, and similar models.
