Learn to build a text prediction engine from scratch in this conference talk that demystifies language model technology by demonstrating how any programmer can create their own "very small language model" within an hour. Discover practical techniques for implementing next word prediction algorithms, explore methods to enhance your basic language model, and gain insights into the underlying mechanics that power modern AI text assistance features. Examine the rebranding of text prediction as AI assistance and understand why this technology isn't as complex or exclusive as major tech companies might suggest. Follow along as the speaker constructs a working text prediction system from the ground up, providing both theoretical understanding and hands-on implementation details that challenge the notion that language models require massive resources or specialized expertise to develop.
