Dear Medical Educator,
You may feel that you don’t know how to use ChatGPT and other large language models, that you're late to start, and even that you don’t know where to begin.
I understand how you feel, and I have an easy solution for you: a USEFUL video by an expert.
Why This Resource Is the Best:
Andrej Karpathy, a well-known expert in AI research, shares his workflow for daily use.
The content is designed for beginners.
He mainly shows practical examples but also gives essential background/foundational information.
It’s not boring.
I'm confident that watching this video as a beginner will help you feel more confident in practically using LLMs and also understanding how they work.
Viewing Tip: If pressed for time, consider watching at 2x speed. Our study found that 2x playback speed does not significantly impair memory retention.
Investing two hours (one hour at 2x speed) in this video will make you more than a begginner.
