Need tutorials or free YouTube guides for creating ai

[uneven tangle]

Well good luck xD
Where are you with your programming skills?

[olive tree]

What specifically do you mean by AI? ChatGPT? Or are you wanting to build systems that can learn from data to make predictions?

[proven locust]

I know python basics cause it clicked really easy, and learning C+/ C++, a good amount of lua

[proven locust]

Well my goal seems a little impossible, I want to make something more advanced than ChatGPT. Something that can teach itself but to do that I have to know how its made without it.

Without the advanced stuff

[uneven tangle]

Then you know AI is allready smth like this:

def myoutput(ins):
  if isinstance(ins, str)
    print("thats a string")
  else:
    print("sadly no string")

myoutput(5)
myoutput("banana")

so more definition fo what you think AI is^^

[proven locust]

Yeah but, I mean how it predicts what to say next

[uneven tangle]

then u need to study LLMs

[proven locust]

Thats the word that sounds like what I need

[uneven tangle]

tons of statistic and optimizations

[olive tree]

That is not AI. AI, in the sense OP is talking is neural networks

[uneven tangle]

Large Language Models

[proven locust]

So LLM and Neural Networks?

I even studied the brain Grey matter vs White matter 😭

Also the instinct of every animal being Survival which causes them to evolve

[olive tree]

To train AI you need very powerful computers. I’m building one rn just to run AI and I have another computer coming later this year that should be able to run even larger AI models. Training is a step above running AI.

What kind of computer do you have?

[proven locust]

colab research google seems free and I think can handle that

[uneven tangle]

It was AI till a few years ago xD
Thats the lowest level of AI you can get.

In the end a AI allways analyzes inputs and returns a output.
Same what we do as humans, something happens and we react (conscious or unconscious)

[olive tree]

Look into RAG and running your own AI locally using tools like Ollama. It’ll get you started and you can begin experimenting with different ideas.

[olive tree]

No not really. Neural networks are decades old, even GPTs aren’t a new technology. That stuff is only really becoming a big deal now because compute has caught up with theory

[proven locust]

So the colab thing dont work?

[olive tree]

I’ve not used colab. I know it can be used for machine learning, which is a large part of how GPTs and LLMs work

[uneven tangle]

well everything you learn can add up to knowledge and thoughts you ddint had before, so ust look into one thing after another and chain them to the knowledge you need.
But tehre was something from google iirc, that expalined basics of LLM pretty well (but huge topic tho)

[proven locust]

Well you guys narrowed down the topics, thanks.

[uneven tangle]

i think u meant this:
https://colab.google/resources/

the resources are good.
This is for grabbing test data & some more(not looked deep):
https://www.kaggle.com

basics of statistics easy explained:

(found it helpfull when i had my AI course xD still couldnt catch up the tempo and stopped looking into it)

*** Well see you in a year again^^***

[olive tree]

If you have any questions about it feel free to ask. I've been coding for 20 years and I'm currently learning about and experimenting with AI and LLMs myself. I know we have some other community members that are also doing a lot of the same

[wicked wraith]

If you actually want to do ML research:

• Get a degree in computer science and or math
• Do more math
• Watch Andrej Karpathy's lectures on LLMs
• Notice that LLMs are not the path to AGI
• Break down and cry because you don't have $500 billion to spend on GPUs
• Work at a normal AI lab
