I'm writing a deep learning course called Zero to GPT - https://github.com/VikParuchuri/zero_to_gpt https://github.com/VikParuchuri/zero_to_gpt .
It teaches you everything you need to train an LLM, including the basics of deep learning and linear algebra. You learn the theory and the application. It includes written explanations, code, diagrams, and videos.
I believe that learning should be challenging enough to let the concepts sink in, so it's not a course you can just skim. It also isn't a "just type this, trust me" type of course - I think it's important to always know why you're doing something and how it works.
I've written 11 lessons, and I'm up to transformers - only a few more lessons to go. It's been fun to write, but balancing time spent training models with writing the course has been hard. Hopefully I will get to finish it soon.
