LLMs in Depth: How an LLM Works Mathematically (and Its Implementation with PyTorch)

FORMAT: WorkshopLEVEL: AdvancedLANGUAGE: Spanish

Demystify the mathematics behind Large Language Models and implement them from scratch in PyTorch. This advanced workshop takes you through the complete mathematical foundations: attention mechanisms, transformer architecture, positional encodings, layer normalization, and training dynamics. For each mathematical concept, we'll write the corresponding PyTorch implementation—giving you a deep, hands-on understanding of how LLMs actually work under the hood.
