what a hugely underrated video. You did such a better job at explaining this on multiple abstraction layers in such a short video than most videos I could find on the topic which were more than twice as long.

Thanks a ton Jeffrey! Means a lot. I've come to realize (fairly recently) that only speaking in jargon isn't going to help. Pealing it down from highly abstract to more technical goes a long way for viewers and myself. I understand more when I break the jargon down. Using this more in future videos

@@CodeEmporium Of course everyone has a different approach to understanding a topic. I recently had to get into a few topics quite quickly and fore me the best way of getting there fast was to start out with very general videos to get a sort of feel for the general ideas and how everything works together on a high level. Then I would watch some more detailed videos or switch to reading more detailed articles until finally reading the actual papers and looking at the formulas and all that stuff. Having an understanding of the bigger picture helped me comprehend the details better. I Also think no explanation can ever be "too simple" cause sometimes when explanations try to save time by glossing over parts or taking things for granted you spend way more time rewinding trying to wrap your head about some small detail just because you might be missing some needed knowledge. I think in an explanation it's like with spices on food. better keep it simple and easy. Individuals can always skip parts for themselves. same with the spices: Better not add too much thinking everyone will be able to take it, rather add a little and if it's not enough for someone they can add it themselves.

Wow. I've seen lectures that are 45m+ long trying to understand this architecture, even lectures from the original authors. Your video was hands-down the best, really helped me piece some key missing intuition pieces together. You have a gift for teaching and explaining -- I wholeheartedly hope you're able to leverage that in your professional career!

Great video! I love how you go through multiple passes, each getting into deeper specifics!

I love the multi-pass way of explanation so that the viewer can process high level concepts and then build upon that knowledge, great job.

Great video! Watched it a few times already so these timestamps will help me out: 0:00 Problems with RNNs and LSTMs 3:34 First pass overview over transformer architecture 8:10 Second pass with more detail 10:34 Third pass focusing on attention networks and normalization 11:57 Other resources (code & blog posts)

Great video!! I am taking a course in my university and one of the lectures was about RNNs and transformers. Your video of 13 mins explains way better than the 100 mins lecture i attended. Thank you!

The multi-pass approach to progressively explaining the internals worked well. Thanks for your content!

Very Underrated. Please keep doing these videos. You have no idea what a great amount of service this is doing to the young research communities who are just learning to read research papers. Instant subscribed.🙌

This is by far the best explanation of the Transformers architecture that I have ever seen! Thanks a lot!

Outstanding explanations: to the point and well illustrated. Thank you.

I cant believe you explained so complicated things in crystal clear format. Excellent job dude

With videos like this one you should be having 100,000+ subscribers soon. Adding a bit of humor to uncompromising technical content is a very good way to go.

Bro TBH no words to appreciate such a well structured video in a short time and the explanation was easly understandable even for people with less knowledge. Thanks for the video man.

This is heavily underrated!! Such an awesome video! Thanks Man!

Amazing! The best explanation on youtube about Transformer Neural networks, the matrices visual representations helps a lot!

Went through several videos on 'Attention is all you need' paper before this, all the details you managed to cover in thirteen minutes is amazing. Could not find explanation that is so easy to understand anywhere else. Great job!

right? I couldn't believe this video is only 13 minutes! That's a very good talent to have.

That was the best way of explaining thins in my opinion. Start big picture, getting more detailed over time.

KEEP IT UP! Please! This is outstanding :) love the diagrams, dry crisp active speaking, & overview technique.

One of the cleanest explanation for transformers without dabbling too much into the theory!! Thanks man

This was very helpful! You broke it down into such simpler concepts. I'm sure I'll be needing you again. Please keep at it. Thanks!

One of the best or probably the best explanation I've seen. Thank you very much for the effort.

Thanks, man. This is a really clear and high-level explanation. Really helpful for some guys like me who just stepped into this area. I read many explanations online. They give tons of details but fail in explaining these abstract items. These explanations always use other abstract definitions to explain this one. This problem happens again in the explanation of the "other abstract item". Sometimes I just forgot originally what I want to understand. Or even worse, they form a circulation... Thank you so much! This video helped me a lot in understanding the paper

I had to make 2 passes of your video to fully understand and appreciate the underlying mathematics and working of the model. You have put a great effort in making it simpler to understand with illustration and animation.

Your way to breaking down step by step is very effective! Congrats and thanks. School systems should use it more

Great work. I really like the info graphics. I’m a person with no background on NLP but I was still able to follow till the second pass, thanks to your great work.

This is by far the most comprehensive yet short video i haave seen

This is awesome!!! Thank you for breaking it down concisely, understandably, and deeply! It’s hard to find explanations that aren’t so simplistic they’re useless, or so involved they don’t save time in achieving understanding. Thank you!!

Very well, clearly explained the concepts, and nice visualization video. I spent a couple of hours and read multiple blog/tutorial about transformers, but I learned a lot more from your 13 mins video compared to those tutorials. Great job. I subscribed to your channel after watching this. Keep up the good work

Very well explained! Great video, as always.

Finally a basic explanation I can understand. I tried reading the original "Attention is all you need" paper, but it felt like it was assuming I was already familiar with the basics of NLP, like the encoder-decoder setup. Which I wasn't.

Really great video. As someone transitioning from pure math into machine learning and AI, I find the language barrier to be the biggest hurdle and you broke down these concepts in a really clear way. I love the multiple layer approach you took to this video, I think it worked really well to first give a big picture overview of the architecture before delving deeper.

LOVE the multipass strategy for explaining the architecture. I don't think I've seen this approach used with ML, and it's a shame as this is an incredibly useful strategy for people like me trying to play catch up. I hopped on the ML train a little late, but stuff like this makes me feel not nearly as lost.

That was an awesome explanation. I have a question about the Add & Norm block. Do you add the embedded vector before or after performing normalization ? Is there even a difference if we do one instead of the other ?

This was a phenomenal video. You managed to explain transformers in 13 minutes better than my professor could in three hours. Thank you and keep on creating content!

Great explanation. Could you do another video on positional encoding specifically? It seems to be very important, but I’ve found it the most confusing part of this architecture.

Wow ! Truly magnificient video ! Really understood transformers very well. Thank you so much. Please keep making these videos. You are very good at it. Thanks again.

prolly the best explanation on this topic on youtube
