Large Language Models (LLMs) have grown into prominence as some of the most popular technological artifacts of the day. This talk will provide a highly accessible and visual overview of LLM concepts relevant to today's data professionals. This includes looking at present-day Transformer architectures, tokenizers, reward models, reasoning LLMs, agentic trajectories, and the various training stages of a large language model including next-word prediction, instruction-tuning, preference-tuning, and reinforcement learning.
