How LLMs Understand your Prompts: Tokenization & Embeddings | Chapter 05
Summary
The video explains how Large Language Models (LLMs) understand text by converting it into numerical representations through tokenization and embeddings. It demonstrates how text is broken into tokens, assigned unique IDs, and then transformed into dense vectors (embeddings) that capture semantic meaning and positional information for LLM processing.

NewsHow Distillation Works? #claude #kimik3
Knowledge distillation trains a smaller student AI model by using prompts and reasoning outputs from a larger, more advanced teacher model. This process allows the cheaper student model to replicate the expensive teacher's advanced capabilities at a fraction of the computational cost and without accessing its source code.
NewsRAG Explained + Build a RAG App From Scratch in Python using LLM | Chapter 08
This video teaches the core concepts of retrieval-augmented generation and demonstrates how to build a complete RAG application from scratch in Python using a Groq language model. The tutorial covers a seven-step pipeline including document ingestion, token-based text chunking, vector embedding generation, in-memory storage, similarity search, prompt augmentation, and response generation.
TutorialsHow to Write Efficient Prompts | Prompt Injection Attacks | Chapter 07
This video teaches the fundamentals of prompt engineering, demonstrating how to craft efficient prompts using tasks, context, examples, formats, and personas. It also explains the risks of prompt injection attacks and demonstrates how to prevent them by instructing the model to treat input content strictly as data rather than instructions.
TutorialsHow Transformers Work - Attention Explained Step by Step | Chapter 06
The video explains the Transformer architecture, detailing how it processes text input through tokenization, embedding, and a stack of Transformer blocks to generate the next token. It breaks down the attention mechanism, multi-head attention, and feed-forward layers within a Transformer block, highlighting the differences between encoders and decoders.
TutorialsHow Large Language Models (LLMs) Work - Full Explanation | Chapter 04
Large Language Models (LLMs) are text-based neural networks trained on massive data to predict the next word (token), operating through tokenization, vector embeddings, and a transformer architecture. LLMs undergo pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning from human feedback to become helpful, safe, and aligned, with concepts like context length, knowledge cut-off, and hallucination defining their capabilities and limitations.
