Errata:
~10:26 - The animation depicting the number of tune-able parameters counts biases as if the input neurons have biases. They do not. For example, the 10x8x8x8x2 neural network has 26 biases (8+8+8+2), not 36.

“What I cannot create, I do not understand” - Richard Feynman. My motivation for watching this series.

We need more people like you. And you know what? You are making them.

Dropping this video is such a big news that even if aliens landed today it would be the second most important thing that happened today

I have a solid science background in Physics and mathematics and this is the first time that I came across a lecture which explains why, what, when and how deep learning is from the basics. I am not a fan of memorizing things that I cannot extend in the future. Sentdex, you are on point and these video series have broken the backbone of deep learning for me. Thank you

[ericmeehan]

This is one of the highest quality programming tutorials I’ve seen. Even online courses from universities aren’t this well made made. Thank you for putting this together!

[TheOriginalJohnDoe]

No university in the world beats this top quality of knowledge for free. You go man! You don't know how much your time and effort you put into this has been appreciated. Machine learning and neural networks are hard because of the intense logic behind it, even though I've been programming for 5+ years now. This really does the heavy lifting for many people. Thanks!

Me: opens youtube.
Youtube: Sentdex- Neural network from scratch.
Me: Opens the link faster than the speed of
light.

Really love how you’re teaching the mathematics behind deep learning... think this will lead to a lot of innovation

[michaels]

You’re a hero...edit: Update: I’ve been hopping on some friends zoom courses on AI for a pretty elite university(won’t say which one) and you absolutely SMOKE the professor with your ability to teach. I don’t know if people wrote you off when you were starting out but you have certainly proven yourself as one of the GOATS

[bovribi]

This is definitely one of the best programming tutorials I've ever watched. Instead of bombarding you with complex math, you take a very pragmatic path and expect minimal knowledge beforehand. This is probably the video definition of "you don't know what you're talking about until you can explain it to a five-year-old".

I come from 10 years in the future, we used this tutorial to rebuild society after the Corona Cataclysm!

"Now this is all very simple maths. But I'm gonna explain it anyway"

BLESS. I'm a uni dropout who installs safety signage for a living, so it is profoundly and deeply helpful when a tutorial doesn't assume that competent beginner programmers know any maths.

[isuryanarayanan]

this is what ive been waiting for my man, you made me a full stack developer now make me a machine learning developer

[thorvalld]

I'm just 30 seconds into this and paused to tell you how much I appreciate your work, I can't thank you enough or begin to describe how much your content have helped me to better myself as a developer, you're awesome, keep it up! Cheers from the fjords of Norway !

[tobiaslint]

Can't thank you enough for all the stuff you put on. I'm actually working as an Dev for two years now and everything started with your Pygame tutorials. Thanks man!

[farenhite]

Can I just say how thankful I am for this?

Most tutorials are either very basic and don’t tell much, overload you with all the math upfront, tell you to import tensorflow and not tell you why it works.
Thanks for this middle ground tutorial, something that is really needed.

[sachinsinkar]

Perfect utilization of LockDown Period, Revise the things from the person who taught you in the past. Thanks, Sir. Love you 3000..!!

[gapedbrain]

5 years ago, I started programming watching your videos, working a shit job. now I’m a data engineer looking to get into data science. super excited to watch through this series. thanks for what you do.

I wrote a Java library for deep ANNs (from scratch) that implemented vectorized forward propagation and backpropagation. It honestly was such a useful thing because I know so much more about neural networks now
