Ask HN: Good introduction to LLMs and how they work?

2 points by arthurjj 3y ago ↗ HN

Does anyone have any articles or papers that are a good introduction to LLMs and all the associated vocabulary? Ideally for software people with some machine learning experience.The term has already been SEOd so google search doesn't work that great

Stephen Wolfram wrote a very detailed explainer: https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2023/02/what-is-chatgpt-...

Wolfram also has an intro playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKfn5q-Gbg8&list=PLxn-kpJHbP...
