Overview of Zero to GPT courses

This course stars with the fundamentals - neural network architectures and training methods. Later in the course, we'll explore complex topics like transformers, GPU programming, and distributed training. You'll need to understand Python to take this course, including for loops, functions, and classes. The first part of this Dataquest path will teach you what you need. To get the most out of this course, go through each chapter sequentially. Read the lessons or watch the optional videos - they have the same information. Look through the implementations to solidify your understanding, and recreate them on your own.

Dataquest starts at the most basic level, so a beginner can understand the concepts. I tried learning to code before, using Codecademy and Coursera. I struggled because I had no background in coding, and I was spending a lot of time Googling. Dataquest helped me actually learn.

I liked the interactive environment on Dataquest. The material was clear and well organized. I spent more time practicing then watching videos and it made me want to keep learning.

I really love learning on Dataquest. I looked into a couple of other options and I found that they were much too handhold-y and fill in the blank relative to Dataquest's method. The projects on Dataquest were key to getting my job. I doubled my income!
