I’ve gone through this series of videos earlier this year.

In the past I’ve gone through many “educational resources” about deep neural networks - books, coursera courses (yeah, that one), a university class, the fastai course - but I don’t work with them at all in my day to day.

This series of videos was by far the best, most “intuition building”, highest signal-to-noise ratio, and least “annoying” content to get through. Could of course be that his way of teaching just clicks with me, but in general - very strong recommend. It’s the primary resource I now recommend when someone wants to get into lower level details of DNNs.

Karpathy has a great intuitive style, but sometimes it's too dumbed down. If you come from adjacent fields, it might be a bit dragging, but it's always entertaining
