A CAS LEARNING PATH · SELF-PACED · BROWSER-NATIVE

The Natural Language Processing Series

A growing collection of interactive lectures that teach machines' oldest hard problem — understanding us. Every lecture is a living page: hover it, click it, break it, replay it — no slides, no setup, taught straight from the browser.

THE ROAD AHEAD

One series, one path — from text to transformers

Each lecture stands alone, but together they climb the full mountain: characters → words → vectors → attention → applications. New lectures land here as they are completed.

Interactive first

Every concept is a thing you touch — tag a sentence, flip a word's meaning, trap spammers with a 95%-accurate model, watch BLEU prove itself. Understanding by manipulation, not memorization.

Lecturer ready

Built to be projected: numbered sections, scroll-spy rail, keyboard navigation (↑ / ↓), an animation-free ?static mode, and a mastery quiz that closes every lecture.

Zero setup

No installs, no accounts, no libraries — a link is the entire prerequisite. Opens in any modern browser, on a projector or a phone, online or from a local file.
