Building A GPT-Style LLM Classifier From Scratch

Sebastian Raschka announces his new book "Build a Large Language Model From Scratch," demonstrating how to transform pretrained LLMs into text classifiers. The book guides readers through building a GPT-like LLM, aiming to provide a deep understanding of how LLMs work. An excerpt focuses on classification finetuning, showing how to modify a pretrained model for spam detection with 96% accuracy.
