Transformers Mini Series: How do Transformers Process Text?

from Generative AI 101 · host Emily Laird

In this episode of Generative AI 101, we explore how Transformers break down text into tokens. Imagine turning a big, colorful pile of Lego blocks into individual pieces to build something cool—this is what tokenization does for AI models. Emily explains tokens, and how they work, and shows you why they’re the magic behind GenAI’s impressive outputs. Learn how Transformers assign numerical values to tokens and process them in parallel, allowing them to understand context, detect patterns, and generate coherent text. Tune in to discover why tokenization is important for tasks like language translation and text summarization. Connect with Emily Laird on LinkedIn
