HF Code Makes You Mad, Can't Run? I Fixed Them!

The LLM Course on Hugging Face is a Rapper, but the Code Will Make You Go Mad! :exploding_head:

I’ve completed The LLM Course from Hugging Face! What a ripper of a learning experience - it’s full of advanced concepts that are truly “food for your brain,” taking you from Transformer fundamentals right through to fine-tuning large language models (Llama, GPT, etc.), and the best part is - WITH reasonings.

However, let’s be honest with each other: if you tried to run the notebooks straight from the course, you probably didn’t get the code running most of the time! :man_shrugging: Dependency issues, outdated scripts, or just getting stuck. It happens to everyone!

That’s why I took the plunge and rebuilt everything from scratch.

I created my own working Jupyter Notebooks - meticulously cleaned, debugged, and tested—so they run seamlessly on:
:white_check_mark: Google Colab
:white_check_mark: AWS SageMaker
:white_check_mark: Your local machines (Python 3.9)

This will save you hours of debugging hell. Thanks me later!

Grab my working study notes (code included) here:

And a quick note to content creators: If a tutorial video has only 20K views after 3-4 years, maybe use a pointer on your slides and don’t just read them.

Happy learning, everyone!

On a quick side note, if you know of any positions where I can bring my passion for building impactful AI applications, I’d love to chat!

Cheers,
