## Description

This project is a generative AI educational resource and natural language processing course. It serves as a technical implementation guide for building, pre-training, and fine-tuning a large language model from scratch using PyTorch.

The curriculum provides a step-by-step tutorial on large language model development, focusing specifically on the design of transformer-based text generation models. It includes dedicated instruction on parameter-efficient fine-tuning to optimize training by updating only a small subset of model weights.

The material covers the end-to-end generative AI training pipeline, including the implementation of attention mechanisms and instruction tuning workflows. It details the process of adapting pre-trained models to follow specific user instructions or perform specialized text classification tasks.
