General purpose transformer architecture has really “transformed” the AI landscape. Learn about its origins and structure, and see it built from scratch! We’ll walk through building a small transformer on JAX, using Flax NNX to build the model architecture, Optax for loss function and optimizer creation, and training on accelerated hardware with the help of Orbax and XLA. Get a taste of development on JAX, and prepare to take your own next steps in building and training AI models.
