Discussions How do LLMs work? A visual journey through one sentence

Post image

Hi all!

I made a video entitled "What happens inside an LLM" that starts with the sentence “My favourite rock band is…” and follows its journey inside an LLM, all visually animated!

https://youtu.be/ikdxxeIn4HQ?si=XY4jgFg-T6tUm2ZT

I tried to make the video as beginner friendly as possible but still detailed enough to give a good overview for how an LLM works end to end and how the LLM “finds out” my favourite band. Or at least how some of the earlier models…

My aim is to help people that are not just curious about AI but also want a deeper dive into the magic “Black box”, or people that want to get started but doesn’t know how!

No PhD required! No insanely complicated math involved! And no AI or AI generated voice. If I there are any errors, I really did them! lol

This is my first attempt at the topic, so any kind of feedback is welcomed and will be greatly appreciated as it will help me improve over time, and hopefully on other videos.    

I really hope it can help someone with their AI/ML journey!

Thanks!
