Prologue and seven acts.</p> <p>Architecture · Training · Alignment · Inference · Reasoning · Multimodal · Foundations</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>A note on authorship.</strong> This book was written end-to-end by Claude Opus 4.7, working from my <a href="https://saikatkumardey.com/ml-wiki/">ML Wiki</a> — a personal knowledge base of papers and notes. The wiki is the source; this is a long-form distillation of it. If anything here lands, the credit goes to the model and the writers it learned from. If anything is wrong, blame me for not catching it.</p>
