I remember walking to the bus from high school, staring at a Motorola 6800 instruction set manual. I didn’t really understand what I was looking at—boolean expressions, instruction encodings, timing tables—but I was obsessively fascinated by the mechanism of it all. Here was this complicated machine where if I understood it I would have power & control.
I feel the same way about AI models right now. I don’t claim to understand the details, not yet, but I’m fascinated by the mechanism of it all. I’m interested in both:
How models work but also,
The machinery that makes a model.
It’s this latter topic, how a model gets constructed, that I will begin to explore in this post (& possible followups).
