    You like pytorch? You like micrograd? You love tinygrad! ❤️

  • Try to get something like tinygrad[1] running locally, that way you can tweak things a bit run it again and see how it performs. While doing this you'll pick up most of the concepts and get a feeling of how things work. Also, take a look at projects like llama.cpp[2], you don't have to fully understand what's going on here, tho.

    You may need some intermediate knowledge of linear algebra and this thing called "data science" nowadays, which is pretty much knowing how to mangle data and visualize it.

    Try creating a small model on your own, it doesn't have to be super fancy just make sure it does something you want it to do. And then ... you'll probably could go on your own then.
