This video is one of the talks that I saw live at OpenAI DevDay a few weeks ago, which goes over maximizing LLM performance

It talks about optimizing prompts, best practices for RAG, model evals, fine-tuning and more

I've long admired Jason Yuan's work and am impressed again with what new.computer has been building

This video goes over different examples for how context-aware LLMs can form interfaces that feel much more dynamic and intelligent

Each demo is much different than the other

Intro to Large Language Models by Karpathy

I'm sure this video has already been shared a ton, but I can't overstate how well he explains the processes behind LLMs.

This video put many things into perspective for me, especially:
- the training process
- what makes up the parameters 
- how you go from base model to a chat model

The last two videos are all about Ilya -- I watched these the day Sam got fired

Not only is this video very cinematic(views of SF + dramatic music), it also lets Ilya really speak his mind on how AI can change our futures

You can tell how much he thinks about these things

And last of all, probably the most I've learned from an AI video in a while has to be this video where Ilya explains GPT-2 and goes over transformers and attention(this was 2019 so only two years after Attention Is All You Need)

This video has to be the clearest yet most in depth explanation I've seen of transformers and attention -- the two key breakthroughs that not only power ChatGPT(and similar models) but changed the ways neural networks were architected

This explanation made me want to learn even more about transformers

If you have time to even watch a few minutes, I *highly* recommend watching the "Attention" section(starts around 11:00)

One of the most important innovations in neural networks that powers the large language models we're all using today

There's one particular story from this talk that stood out

A customer had a setup where a query would decide one of two knowledge bases to pull on for RAG -- turned out that "simpler" methods of prompt engineering, tool use, and query expansion yielded in higher accuracy than more complex processes like HyDE retrieval
