What is this course about?

Build Your Own LLM

From-Scratch Transformers · Pretraining · LoRA · vLLM · ChatGPT Capstone

Implement attention, GPT blocks, training loops, and deployment in PyTorch—inspired by Sebastian Raschka—so you understand LLMs at the code level, not only via APIs.

What you'll walk away with:

  • Tokenization, embeddings, and multi-head attention you built yourself
  • A working GPT pretrained and instruction-tuned on custom data
  • Modern internals awareness (RoPE, RMSNorm, GQA, MoE) plus LoRA/QLoRA practice
  • Inference skills with KV cache, quantization, and vLLM-style serving
  • A ChatGPT-style assistant with RAG, memory, and guardrails as your capstone
