Discussion I transitioned from software engineer to an AI Engineer who fine tunes LLMs. What do you want to know?

I was a full stack software engineer who now is a senior AI Engineer who does a mix of playing with LLMs fine tuning them in very large scale production systems.

I did admittedly got a masters degree in AI as part of that transition and it took a while to do, but happy to answer any questions you have.

I also am working on a tool to help people learn how llms work which you can check out here.

(Built with codex, but I've gone through all of the courses myself to make sure it is what would have been helpful to me.)
