LLM Parameters: Model Weights vs Generation Settings
Teach the six building blocks — tokens, tokenization, context window, parameters, pre-training, inference — then use them to understand temperature, top_p, and max_tokens.
Coding concepts explained simply — the long-form companion to @prashant.code.
Teach the six building blocks — tokens, tokenization, context window, parameters, pre-training, inference — then use them to understand temperature, top_p, and max_tokens.
An LLM predicts the next token. An agent observes, decides, acts, and loops. Here's why confusing the two leads to broken demos and overbuilt systems.
Tokens, API calls, message roles, generation settings, tool calling, streaming, and limitations — a practical reference for building with LLMs.
Follow one request from the API call through state, tool calling, conditional routing, and evaluation — the path the 31 phases are actually describing.
The complete roadmap from my latest Instagram reel — every phase from LLM fundamentals to advanced agentic systems, explained.
