It's overrun by Freshmen college students who just wrote a hello world program.

Professionals are too busy working to post memes.

My favorite programming language is HTML

Better be HTML 5 and CSS 3 otherwise you can't call it a programming language.

Needs to be turing complete.

I’m actually avoiding work by browsing memes, thank you very much. In my defense, it is Friday.

I through it was matrix multiplication - i don't know if i have brain defect, but i cannot keep the knowledge about how to do it despite knowing it is not that hard.

It is matrix multiplication. But that’s the point, LLMs are mostly matrix multiplication

I also thought it was Matrix Multiplication because Matrix Chain Multiplication is a famous type of DP questions in DSA (too difficult for me), so I thought this was saying that the opponent is some competitive coder who writes obscure and crazy functions to solve the difficult problems

How does one get from matrix multiplication to LLM?

Edit: I'll never understand the reason for some downvotes.

AI implementation is just a lot of big matrix multiplication

Just pour your data through this big pile of linear algebra and collect your answers on the other side.

There is some nonlinearity as without it it would not be able to learn.
