Building makemore Part 2: MLP
Summary
This video details the implementation of a multilayer perceptron (MLP) for a character-level language model. It comprehensively introduces core machine learning concepts such as model training, hyperparameters, evaluation metrics, and data splitting strategies. This content is highly valuable for educators and students learning the foundational principles and practical aspects of artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Description
We implement a multilayer perceptron (MLP) character-level language model. In this video we also introduce many basics of machine learning (e.g. model training, learning rate tuning, hyperparameters, evaluation, train/dev/test splits, under/overfitting, etc.).

(1) What is the loss you'd get if the predicted probabilities at initialization were perfectly uniform? What loss do we achieve? (2) Can you tune the initialization to get a starting loss that is much more similar to (1)? - E03: Read the Bengio et al 2003 paper (link above), implement and try any idea from the paper.
