"This striked my mind today. Skip connections and residual blocks may appear to be identical but that's not the case. A skip connection is a technique while a residual block is a structural component that utilizes that technique. Skip connections are direct pathways that skips one or more layers allowing information to bypass non-linearities. Residual block is a specific architectural unit where a skip connection is used to add the input x to the output of set of layers F(x) resulting in F(x) + x. This is commonly seen in ResNet architectures. To put it simply all residual block use skip"

"Unpaid internships are almost never worth it matter how desperate you feel. If a company can't pay you they usually won't mentor you either. You'll end up doing random work burning time and calling it experience. Upskill instead. Be patient. Build projects. Network. Apply better. The only exception I'd consider is a genuine research internship where you're actually learning and working closely with a good mentor. But unpaid industry internships Don't normalize that"

"If you already have a basic understanding of deep learning and you're in your 2nd or 3rd year start reading papers and implementing them. Don't wait until you feel ready. That moment never comes. Use AI tools to break down the paper understand the intuition and replicate the code step by step. You'll learn more from one implementation than from weeks of passive courses. And if PyTorch feels like a barrier just watch a good one shot PyTorch video and start building immediately. You'll thank youself later. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022146198132732325"

"Back in December [----] I gave an interview for an ML Engineer role at a Bangalore startup. They asked something simple: "Can attention replace CNN kernels" I blanked out and confidently said no. My logic was: Attention works for text because words repeat. Images don't repeat like that. Two months later I read the Restormer paper and realized how wrong I was. Restormer is basically an attention-first image restoration model that captures long-range dependencies far better than standard CNNs while still using convolution where it makes sense. And the funniest part This paper came out in 2022."

"Ever wondered what people mean when they say "context window" in LLMs Think of an LLM like a human with limited short-term memory. The context window is that memory span - it decides how much text the model can "remember" while generating a response. GPT-3 had a context windows of 2K-4K tokens. GPT-4 Turbo 128K. Claude [---] Even more. Larger context = more room to think recall and reason. You can feed entire books conversations or codebases and still get coherent answers. But here's the catch - a bigger window doesn't mean perfect memory. LLMs don't store information like humans they re-read"

"Time to switch gears. I just wrapped up my RAG project - easily one of the toughest and most rewarding things I've built so far. Mid-terms are now around the corner so I probably won't be diving deep into LLMs or MLOps until they're done. I'll share the project repo after exams - once the documentation is solid. No compromises here. Exams will be over by the 15th. Until then I'll post small things I'm learning - tiny concepts insights and reflections. I know why most of you are here - it's for LLMs and MLOps. I'll do my best to stay consistent and keep adding value even during this break."

"The most dangerous thing about AI isn't that it lies - it's that it lies confidently. You ask a model something simple. It replies instantly flawlessly persuasively and yet it's wrong. That's called a hallucination. Large Language Models don't know things. They don't store facts or check truth. They just predict the next word based on patterns they've seen before. So when the model doesn't know something it doesn't say "I'm not sure." It guesses. But it guesses beautifully. It's like that one kid in class who didn't study but still wrote a full essay with perfect grammar and total confidence."

"RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) - what's the actual point People talk about RAG a lot but the idea is simple: LLMs are great at language not memory. They don't store facts. They don't know your PDFs. They just predict the next token. RAG fixes that. Here's how it actually works: [--]. Retrieval You take your documents chunk them convert each chunk into embeddings and store them in a vector database. When a query comes in you embed the query and pull the top-k most relevant chunks using vector similarity. [--]. Augmentation You attach those retrieved chunks to the user query. This gives the"

"AI makes coding faster and prototyping easier but it doesn't replace learning to code.
