Every time you read a book, you become a little more free. You become a little more self-sufficient and a little more intelligent; a little more capable and a little more aware. You become a little more able to do more stuff, and I like being able to do more stuff. But Transformers for Natural Language Processing, 2nd Edition, by Denis Rothman, is simply ludicrous.
Transformers for Natural Language Processing is the best book I have ever read, and I am never going back. I don’t have to, and you can’t make me. And why would I want to?
The Rise of Super Human Transformer Models with GPT-3 — incidentally, the title of the texts 7th chapter — has changed the game for me and for the world. No longer are the best and most powerful technologies locked away in the Silos of large research institutions, but broken apart and distributed in piecemeal to anyone with the inclination to see the grain and to make with it what you will.
Bread has always been a staple of Western societies, but there is a new one today as well: the industrialized billion and soon-to-be trillion parameter models which Denis Rothman walks you through starting from first principles: the Attention Mechanism of Neural Networks.
When we Attend to something, we consider everything in the context of everything else, and we do so all at once. Washing tokens — a technical definition. Does that mean anything to you? Me neither. But the building blocks of the original Transformer Model, as outlined in the seminal and electric research paper published by the team at Google Brain? Yes. I know exactly how that works now. So will you. You will learn how to build a Multi-Headed Attention Encoder-Decoder network with TensorFlow and the components of said model will be forever etched into your mind like a solemn hymn:
input embedding |
add and norm |
Multi-Headed Attention |
Add and Norm |
Feed Forward |
Add and Norm |
Multi-Headed Attention |
… |
On and on until the result you are left with is an entirely new kind of Machine Learning model free from the limitations of Convolutions and LSTMs.
We need not have a Long and Short Term Memory of that which we learn in this text, because Denis Rothman is really only showing us how we can get started. The choices he makes in this text are directed choices — choices directed towards realizing for yourself the Call to Arms which has mobilized me to embrace the challenge of the moment. The call is simple: to become an Industry 4.0 AI Specialist.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is all about connecting things to things. It is not only about generating new wealth with original creations, but by architecting and orchestrating building blocks across domains to arrive at something completely new.
Is everything perfect? No. The book is 500 pages long. I wish it were 5,000. I want 10x more. But if you are looking to work with the Transformer Models that will dominate the future, Transformers for Natural Language Processing Is All You Need.
