Ask HN: Resources to brush up from 'Intro to ML' to current LLMs/generative AI?

My 'AI' experience to date consists of basically a prolog course, and an 'Intro to ML'. I could say handwavy things about regression and SVMs. I'm pretty sure we covered convolutional neural nets but I barely recall that at all.

I'm interested in understanding more about transformers/GPT/LLMs and more 'media-rich' generative AI like DALLE and Midjourney etc. (I assume they're linked, because they seemed to have breakthroughs and blow up at the same time, but I don't understand that at all) - but not 'prompt engineering' or specifics about tuning model parameters etc.

Can anyone recommend any resources for 'writing a CMS' vs. 'how to configure Wordpress and install a plugin', as it were?

(Prefer text, but understand it might be too new for good ones to have established themselves. In that case, something like OCW preferred to 'screamface'.)

Cheers!
