### Purpose Before I start a new job I want to use this opportunity to build something and up skill myself. I want to learn how to use AI well and understand how things work. ### Principles - Praxis. I don't want to get too theoretical and academic so I want to learn by building something but at the same time I do want to take some time to understand how the underlying AI is operating. ### Outcome Visioning By the end of October I have a decent understanding of how LLMs like GPT work. I understand how to use them and can build agentic systems effectively. ### Brainstorming - What do I already know about this project? I have some good starting points on how to learn about AI and what I don't know about. - What don’t I know that I need to find out? I am not sure if there's a better way to go about learning and what the right sources are. - Who can I talk to who might provide insights? Dev, Karthik, Zgi and Thas are good resources. - What can I read or listen to for relevant ideas? Karpathy has a ton of good content out there. ### Actions - [x] React refresher go over docs ✅ 2025-10-08 - [x] React refresher go over latest updates ✅ 2025-10-17 - [x] Learn about evals 📅 2025-10-22 ✅ 2025-10-22 - [x] Understanding npm vs pnpm vs yarn ✅ 2025-10-24 - [x] Understanding Bun vs Node ✅ 2025-10-24 - [x] Understanding Webpack vs Vite ✅ 2025-10-24 - [x] Understanding Remix ✅ 2025-10-24 - [x] Web application infrastructure layer understanding ✅ 2025-10-24 - [ ] NextJS refresher - go over docs and latest updates - [ ] Understanding Monorepos - [ ] Basic AI refresher in Python - [ ] Learn about https://dspy.ai/ - [ ] Build GPT from scratch with Karpathy - [ ] Read Attention is Everything paper - [ ] Understanding Kubernetes better - [ ] Learning about monorepos
