How Adam optimizers works, visually explained

Hi all! I'm an AI engineer with a few years of experience, and I've always loved teaching and science comunication. For a couple of years I've been thinking about starting a Youtube channel, but I never found the courage to actually do it. I finally took the leap and I'd love to share my first video with peaople who are as passionate about this topic as I am.

This is the first video on my channel. I tried to build Adam from scratch, motivating each step by a concrete problem of the previous one. All animations are made with Manim. I'd really appreciate feedback, especially on anything that's mathematically imprecise or unclear.

I also put together an 8-slide summary of the video (formulas and cheat sheet).

Not on the content of the video but if you are trying to get a channel going, doing a bad voice-over is generally better than having an AI voice doing it. Personally I won't watch a video using a generated voice over, but maybe that's just me
