How to use these explanations

Read the chapters in order. Each one builds on the last. When you hit a word in bold with a link, like self-attention, you can click it to jump to the glossary, where that idea is explained from scratch. The same words show up again and again across papers, so explaining them once in a shared glossary keeps things clean.

You do not need any math beyond basic arithmetic to follow these chapters. You do need patience and curiosity.
