AI Masterclass leanpub.com/set/leanpub/aimast by Henrik Kniberg, Obie Fernandez, and Andriy Burkov is the featured Track on the Leanpub homepage! leanpub.com

Boost your understanding of this world-changing technology - invest in your ability to use AI by actually understanding what it is and how it works.

LeanpubAI MasterclassAbout the Track: AI Masterclass Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the way we live, work, and build technology. The AI Masterclass Track brings together three powerful courses from world-class experts to give you a comprehensive, practical, and hands-on education in the age of AI. Whether you want to understand the big picture, apply AI patterns in real-world software, or dive deep into the mathematics and code behind large language models, this Track has you covered. Why take this Track? Together, these three courses form a complete journey through today’s AI landscape—from understanding generative AI at a strategic and practical level, to applying proven patterns in software development, to mastering the technical foundations of LLMs. You’ll gain not only knowledge but also exercises, quizzes, and code examples that ensure you can confidently apply what you’ve learned in your work. Don’t fall behind or just keep up with AI—master it. Courses Included Generative AI in a Nutshell - Henrik Kniberg A fast-paced, visual, and practical guide to the strange new world of Generative AI. With Henrik’s signature hand-drawn illustrations and down-to-earth explanations, you’ll explore what generative AI is, how it works, how to use it, and how to lead through this transformation—without drowning in jargon or hype. Patterns of Application Development Using AI - Obie Fernandez Learn pragmatic patterns and principles for integrating AI into real-world applications. Drawing from his experience building an AI-powered platform, Obie introduces practical design patterns like “Multitude of Workers” and “Self-Healing Data,” helping you unlock the power of AI in adaptive, user-centric systems. The Hundred-Page Language Models Course - Andriy Burkov A concise yet thorough guide to modern Large Language Models, blending math, illustrations, and hands-on coding. You’ll build your own models from scratch in Python, understand transformers, and explore instruction fine-tuning—all while benefiting from Andriy’s clear explanations and exclusive video content.

The Hundred-Page Language Models Course leanpub.com/courses/leanpub/th by Andriy Burkov is the featured course on the Leanpub homepage! leanpub.com#ai #courses #career #technology #science #math

Master language models through mathematics, illustrations, and code―and build your own from scratch!

This course includes nearly three hours of exclusive video interviews with the author, covering questions related to each of the six lessons included in the course.

Continued thread

Someone might object and say that "True, if a high salary is your main success measure, then doing a #Humanities PhD is probably irrational, but you can measure quality of life and work satisfaction instead". To which I must reply that a Humanities PhD usually scores pretty poorly on those counts as well.

The Employment Agency publishes an annual list of jobs where there aren't enough applicants. Year after year the list is dominated by jobs you get when you flunk out of a uni programme halfway. There are very few free positions as Head Pharmacist, but quite a lot as Assistant Pharmacist with less pay. Interesting from a game-theory perspective. Is it rational to finish your degree? It sure isn't rational to go on past an MA in the #Humanities.

So I'm afraid I might be in big trouble. there are hundreds of applicants for every available job opportunity out there. It also seems like most of the people in my professional network are in a very similar boat so that all they can do is express their support, which is appreciated, but ultimately doesn't pay. #accessibility #job #career
