Why does an LLM need 96 layers? In this lesson, we explore how stacking attention blocks creates a hierarchy of meaning, moving from basic letters to complex abstract logic.

Before-Transformer (B.T.) and After-Transformer (A.T.). In this lesson, we learn about the architectural breakthrough that allowed AI to finally understand context at scale.

Why we can't just 'Patch' AI. Explore the fundamental reasons why deep neural networks are inherently fragile and vulnerable to adversarial noise.
Understand the 'AI Layer Cake'. Learn the technical differences and business implications of Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and the latest Generative AI wave.
Understanding how Generative AI sits within the broader fields of Machine Learning and Deep Learning.
The engine under the hood. A non-math guide to the Transformer architecture that powers all modern LLMs.

A deep dive into the architecture of neural networks, exploring layers, activation functions, and why they dominate modern AI.
