⚙️ Oldham clutch invented in 1821 by John Oldham 🤔

The cam-disc clutch or Oldham mechanism is a method of transmitting torque between 2 parallel but not coaxial shafts.

The mechanism consists of 3 discs, one connected to the input shaft, one connected to the output shaft, and the middle disc connected to the other 2 by a shoulder-to-hollow connection.

How LLMs Work — Explained Like You’re 10 (But Smarter) 🤓

Tokens – AI chops text into little pieces to understand it

Attention – It focuses only on the important words

Transformers – The brain design that powers the magic

Parameters – Billions of settings help it "remember" stuff

Training – First it reads the whole internet. Then it learns tasks

Prompts – Ask the right way, get a better answer

Context – It has a short memory, so keep it clear

Temperature – Low = serious, high = wild and creative

Embeddings – Turns words into numbers it can use

Few-shot/Zero-shot – It learns fast, sometimes with no examples

Chain-of-thought – Ask it to think step-by-step = smarter answers

Inference – You ask, it answers. That’s the payoff

Hallucination – Sometimes it just... makes stuff up

RLHF – Humans teach it what’s helpful or harmful

Alignment – We train it to follow human values
