Instead of spending 2 hours watching Netflix tonight, invest that time in this Stanford lecture. It's one of the clearest end-to-end breakdowns I've seen of how ChatGPT and Claude are built. It covers everything from tokenization and BPE to transformer architecture, the training pipeline, and next-token prediction. Whether you're completely new to AI or already building AI agents every day, this 2-hour-and-34-minute lecture will help you understand what's happening behind the scenes. Bookmark this, set aside some time this weekend, and give it your full attention. Because understanding how AI actually works could be one of the most valuable skills you develop this year.
