I tell all my friends that Andrej was the best instructor I had in grad school, even though I didn't even go to Stanford--I just watched his CS321n videos on YouTube. Really thrilled that he's still making videos.
He's made more than 5 videos covering basically the same topic, of transformer architecture and training. Wonder whats different about this one?
Really love his “let’s build” series - I end up picking up cool Python tricks along the process, even in addition to the higher level content.
I still remember how to back propagate using python lists which was part of CS231n project by @karpathy. Amazing thing is I did not goto Stanford.
Thanks Andrej. I have a pretty good understanding of how LLMs work and how they are trained, but alot of my friends don't. These videos/talks give them 'some' idea.
It frustrates me that I can't focus on these long-form videos when they are likely much better than the soundbite sized video counterparts.
Karpathy is too good to us. These videos are so incredibly valuable, thank you for sharing.
I sat through the entire thing...my cheeks fell asleep but well Worth it. Thak you Andrej!
I'm a simple man, I see a Karpathy video, I click, I watch, I enjoy. :)
I wish there were another way to distribute video. Content disappears from youtube eventually, for silly reasons.
I think this is important content, the more people know how ai works under the hood the more empowered society will be.
Andrej, I like you much more now than when you were at Tesla. You have been adding real value to my life and many others. Thank you.
So much respect for this guy. He is like Neo of the matrix, bridging the gap between humans and machines. I have so far learned the following for free from his repos/videos:
1. minGPT, nanoGPT (transformers)
2. NLP (make more series)
3. tokenizers (his youtube)
4. RNN (from his blog)
There are many domains which don't have a karpathy and we don't hear about them. So glad we have this guy to spread his intuitions on ML.
