Transformers and Attention Mechanisms

In this insightful talk, Grant Sanderson explores the mechanics of Transformers and attention mechanisms in deep learning, breaking down complex concepts into visually understandable segments. He explains how Transformers revolutionized machine translation and other tasks by efficiently processing information through attention blocks and multi-layer perceptrons. Sanderson emphasizes the importance of parallelization and scale in training large models, while also discussing the implications of these technologies for future AI applications.
