This video, part two of the 'makemore' series, delves into building a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural network for a character-level language model. It addresses the limitations of simpler bi-gram models by introducing word embeddings and a multi-layer architecture, demonstrating dataset preparation, PyTorch implementation of embedding, hidden, and output layers, and efficient loss calculation. The tutorial covers crucial aspects of training, including mini-batching, learning rate tuning, data splitting, and model scaling, culminating in a model that generates more realistic names and is accessible via Google Colab.
