In Build a Large Language Model (from Scratch) bestselling author Sebastian Raschka guides you step by step through creating your own LLM. Each stage is explained with clear text, diagrams, and examples. You'll go from the initial design and creation, to pretraining on a general corpus, and on to fine-tuning for specific tasks.
Build a Large Language Model (from Scratch) teaches you how to:
- Plan and code all the parts of an LLM
- Prepare a dataset suitable for LLM training
- Fine-tune LLMs for text classification and with your own data
- Use human feedback to ensure your LLM follows instructions
- Load pretrained weights into an LLM
About the technology
Physicist Richard P. Feynman reportedly said, I don't understand anything I can't build. Based on this same powerful principle, bestselling author Sebastian Raschka guides you step by step as you build a GPT-style LLM that you can run on your laptop. This is an engaging book that covers each stage of the process, from planning and coding to training and fine-tuning.
About the book
Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch) is a practical and eminently-satisfying hands-on journey into the foundations of generative AI. Without relying on any existing LLM libraries, you'll code a base model, evolve it into a text classifier, and ultimately create a chatbot that can follow your conversational instructions. And you'll really understand it because you built it yourself!
What's inside
- Plan and code an LLM comparable to GPT-2
- Load pretrained weights
- Construct a complete training pipeline
- Fine-tune your LLM for text classification
- Develop LLMs that follow human instructions
Readers need intermediate Python skills and some knowledge of machine learning. The LLM you create will run on any modern laptop and can optionally utilize GPUs.
About the author
Sebastian Raschka, PhD, is an LLM Research Engineer with over a decade of experience in artificial intelligence. His work spans industry and academia, including implementing LLM solutions as a senior engineer at Lightning AI and teaching as a statistics professor at the University of WisconsinMadison.
Sebastian collaborates with Fortune 500 companies on AI solutions and serves on the Open Source Board at University of WisconsinMadison.
