Essential Matrix Algebra for Neural Networks, Clearly Explained!!!

Although you don't need to know matrix algebra to understand the ideas behind neural networks, if you want to code them or read the latest manuscripts about the field, then you'll need to understand matrix algebra. This video teaches the essential topics in matrix algebra and shows how a neural network can be written as a matrix equation, and then shows how understand PyTorch documentation, error messages and the equations for Attention, which is the fundamental concept behind ChatGPT.
