Show Notes
Ever wondered what "weights" actually are in a neural network? Join Corn and Herman as they demystify the gears and pulleys behind AI, from the massive scale of tensors to the precision of fine-tuning. They explore how billions of numerical "knobs" are turned to capture human knowledge and why these models are more like holograms than databases. It’s a deep dive into the math that makes the magic possible, with a side of questionable focus-enhancing headwear.
