Data Scientist and Generative AI Lead. I build GenAI applications and set up AI governance at FWD Insurance.

Good resources I’ve found and keep coming back to, for my own reference and for anyone who finds them useful.

Fun things

  • ciechanow.ski - One of the best explanations of how mechanical watches work, interactive and a joy to click through.

AI

  • Deep Learning with Python - Chapters 15-16 are one of the clearest explanations of how transformers work, with coding examples, by the great François Chollet.

Computer engineering

  • CPU.land - A tutorial that walks through how computers actually run, CPU first, and is clear enough for anyone without a computing background who got pulled into engineering.
