LLM Foundations Guide Sharpens Interview Prep

Strong fundamentals remain the fastest way to separate genuine LLM understanding from API familiarity.

• –Traces the complete path from text input to the first generated token
• –Connects chain-rule modeling to practical autoregressive inference
• –Clarifies how logits become probabilities through softmax
• –Covers decoding and training concepts that frequently appear in technical interviews
• –Best used as a rapid review guide, not a substitute for implementing transformer inference
