Understanding AI, ML, NLP, LLMs, and Real-World Generative Systems, One Step at a Time
Artificial intelligence doesn't think in moments of magic.
It learns, reasons, and generates outcomes token by token through math, data, and carefully engineered systems.
Token by Token is a technical writing series dedicated to understanding modern AI from the inside out. From foundational machine learning concepts to large language models and real-world generative AI systems, this series focuses on how intelligence is built, not just how it appears.
This is not a collection of surface-level tutorials or trend-driven commentary.
Here, we slow things down.
We will explore how Complex ideas like neural networks, optimization, transformers, embeddings, attention, training dynamics, inference pipelines, and deployment trade-offs are broken into clear, intuitive steps. Each article builds on the previous one, helping you form a mental model of how intelligent systems actually work.
The goal is clarity, not intimidation.
There's no hype here. No shortcuts. No "black-box" thinking.
Just careful reasoning, solid engineering, and honest explanations,
built one concept, one decision, one token at a time.
If you want to move beyond using AI tools and start understanding the systems beneath them,
you're in the right place.
Welcome to Token by Token.
