Large language models have come a long way. Modern LLMs can generate almost anything that is humanly possible, and even things that aren't. However, at their core, they are text generators that predict the next likely words in a sequence. This notebook covers the very fundamental concepts of text generation, from corpus to tokenization, embeddings, padding, N-grams, and finally, generating text.
- Corpus: A large collection of text that the model is trained on.
- Tokenization: The process of breaking down text into smaller pieces, or 'tokens', that the model can understand.
- Embeddings: A crucial step that transforms tokens into numerical vectors, allowing the model to capture semantic relationships between words.
- Padding: A technique used to ensure that all sequences in a batch have the same length, making it easier for the model to process them.
- N-grams: Sequences of 'n' items from a given sample of text, which are used to predict the next word in a sequence.
- Text Generation: The process of using a trained model to generate new text.
Each of these concepts is explained in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. The goal of this notebook is to provide a clear understanding of the basics of text generation.
This notebook uses TensorFlow for its easy-to-understand nature. TensorFlow is a popular open-source machine learning framework that makes it easy to build and deploy machine learning models.

I hope this notebook helps you understand the concepts of text generation better. Enjoy learning!
