À propos de cet audio
In this episode, we explore the attention mechanism—why it was invented, how it works, and why it became the defining breakthrough behind modern AI systems. At its core, attention allows models to instantly focus on the most relevant parts of a sequence, solving long-standing problems in memory, context, and scale.
We examine why earlier models like RNNs and LSTMs struggled with long-range dependencies and slow training, and how attention removed recurrence entirely, enabling global context and massive parallelism. This shift made large-scale training practical and laid the foundation for the Transformer architecture.
Key topics include:
• Why sequential memory models hit a hard limit
• How attention provides global context in one step
• Queries, keys, and values as a relevance mechanism
• Multi-head attention and richer representations
• The quadratic cost of attention and sparse alternatives
• Why attention reshaped NLP, vision, and multimodal AI
