about the book
Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch) is a practical and eminently-satisfying hands-on
journey into the foundations of generative AI. Without relying on any existing LLM libraries, you’ll
code a base model, evolve it into a text classifier, and ultimately create a chatbot that can follow
your conversational instructions. And you’ll really understand it because you built it yourself!
