How to Start Building Projects with LLMs
Becoming an LLM engineer is a promising career path. The best way to learn is by building projects. This post suggests starting with practical projects like developing a YouTube video summarizer that uses Python packages such as langchain, pytube, and youtube-transcript-api. The core bot functionality involves receiving a YouTube URL, retrieving the transcript, and using LLM to summarize the content, which is then returned to the user. For deployment, serve the summarization functionality as a Flask API and use Twilio to connect to WhatsApp for testing. The post also introduces a project-based course for LLM applications.
