Hey everyone, I’m 19 and I’ve been riding the LLM wave since ChatGPT dropped in late 2022. While I’m comfortable prompting tools like Gemini and GPT-4, I’m only seeing the tip of the iceberg and I feel so behind. I’ve never considered myself a ‘computer person’ or a coder, but the more I hear about alll these buzzwords -agentic AI, autonomous workflows, local LLMs, Claudecode, Clawbot- the more I realize I don’t want to just be a consumer. I want to be fluent in this tech. I want to understand the ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind the models, not just keep chatting normally. For the experts here: How do I become truly educated in the field (from architecture basics to understanding Ai to its depths), where would you begin? I’m looking for a deep dive, not a shortcut. What are the essential concepts, tools, or languages I should prioritize to actually understand what’s happening behind the screen? And how do i stay up to date with everything? I only find out stuff weeks later by fluke when I come across some influencer taking about this stuff. Thank you guys submitted by /u/Fit_Kangaroo8520
