No new models, no massive announcements which probably means we're due for something big next week, my money's on Gemini 3. Instead of scraping the barrel for non-stories, I decided to do something actually useful and walk through the best learning resources for getting a proper foundation in AI. Not the surface-level stuff, but the resources that'll actually help you understand what's happening under the hood of these large language models. I started with the fun entry-level videos — Casually Explained and Exurb1a for the philosophical bits — then moved into the serious stuff like Three Blue One Brown's neural networks course and Steven Wolfram's excellent explainer. The real gold is Andre Karpathy's work, particularly his three-and-a-half hour deep dive into LLMs (yes, it's long, I did it on a treadmill). If you work through these resources over a couple of weeks, you'll genuinely know more about how these things work than 99% of people out there. I've also compiled everything into Monday's newsletter as a proper reference guide, so you don't have to frantically scribble notes.
