This workshop is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of LLMs, right from foundational NLP concepts to the latest in this domain. This workshop is aimed at working professionals but covers the required details to help beginners get started. You will gain valuable insights and hands-on experience to learn & adapt concepts to your professional lives.

The list of LLMs/models which will be explored/used during the workshop would be BERT, GPT2, LLaMA3, Gemma, OpenAI models
 

Key Takeaways:

  • Understand the fundamentals of Language Models and Transformer architectures.
  • Gain hands-on experience with LLMs and related concepts such as PEFT, Prompt Engineering, RAGs,  LLM frameworks like DSPY.
  • Explore advanced topics such as Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) and tool-calling through MCP

Prerequisites:

  • Basics/hands-on experience of working with python
  • Basic understanding of Deep Neural Networks (pytorch preferably)
  • Access to google-colab or similar python environment with GPU access

*Note: These are tentative details and are subject to change.
