New course: Transformers in Practice. You'll get a practical view of how transformer-based LLMs work, so you can reason about their behavior, diagnose problems like slow inference, and make smarter decisions about deployment. This course is built in partnership with @AMD and taught by @realSharonZhou.

You'll see how transformers generate text one token at a time, how the model decides which earlier words matter most when predicting the next one, and how techniques like quantization speed up inference on GPUs. This is not a video-only course; interactive visualizations throughout let you play with these concepts and build intuition that sticks.

Skills you'll gain:
- Understand why LLMs hallucinate, and RAG and chain-of-thought shape what they generate
- Look inside the model to see how attention and layers combine to predict the next token
- Diagnose inference bottlenecks and learn the techniques that speed up transformers on GPUs

Join and understand what's really happening inside your LLMs: https://t.co/oS6ekeHsIw

Exciting day today! Thrilled to partner with @OpenAI to deploy 6GWs of AMD Instinct GPUs. The world needs more AI compute. Together, we’re bringing the best of both companies to accelerate the global AI infrastructure buildout. Thanks @sama @gdb for the trust and partnership. A true win-win for both companies!

Quantum information systems are challenging to visualise since the dimension of the space grows exponentially with the number of qubits. See how it's done in the quantum cellular automata project: https://t.co/LkhrU6D3cP

@nunezluis Yo que pensaba que los pregrados y maestrías eran el amolador de la mal afilada cuchilla del aprendiz a profesor. Y los doctorados, bueno si, el profesor consolida el juego de cubiertos.

@chuliusmusica Ahora bien, si usted le hace la pregunta a chatgpt la respuesta le resultará útil, aunque insisto, para mí la decisión siempre estará sujeta al estado de espíritu de su hijo.

"I learned not to take initial rejections as being permanent obstacles to moving ahead."

When Elinor Ostrom applied for a PhD in economics she was turned away. Despite this, Ostrom became the first woman to be awarded the prize in economic sciences.
