Free AI Research foundations Training by Google DeepMind

Google DeepMind and UCL experts have released a ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ, hands-on curriculum. It covers the fundamentals of building and fine-tuning language models, including data preparation, neural networks, and the transformer architecture.

Hereโ€™s a look at what the courses cover:
