LLM Fundamentals in 3 Days

Understand how large language models actually generate text, and what that means for your work.

Who it's for: Knowledge workers who use AI assistants daily but cannot explain how they work. No coding or advanced math required.

In three learning days you'll be able to

  • Explain, step by step, how an LLM turns your prompt into a reply.
  • Read the architecture diagram of the original Transformer paper and say what each block does.
  • Use first principles to explain hallucinations, cost, context limits and inconsistent answers.
  • Decide when to use prompting, RAG or fine-tuning, and defend the choice.
