Introduction to LLM
This page provides an easy-to-understand guide on LLMs (Large Language Models) from basics to applications for AI enthusiasts.
Chapter 7 — Efficiency and Transformer Variants
Seventh post of the LLM Primer II walkthrough. The computational complexity of attention, the GPU memory and throughput math that constrains real systems, FlashAttention derived from first principles, and the family of clever variants — multi-query, gated, low-rank — that keep big models running.

Chapter 6 — Transformer Blocks and Representation Power
Sixth post of the LLM Primer II walkthrough. Feed-forward layers, activation functions, why "attention + FFN" is exactly the right pair, and what mathematical guarantees depth and width give you about expressivity.
2026-03-08Part I — Mathematical Foundations for Understanding LLMs
A clear and intuitive introduction to the mathematical foundations behind Large Language Models (LLMs). This section explains probability, entropy, embeddings, and the essential concepts that allow modern AI systems to think, reason, and generate language. Learn why mathematics is the timeless core of all LLMs and prepare for Chapter 1: Mathematical Intuition for Language Models.
