Finish a machine learning project you can explain
Each course ends with something concrete: a trained model, a measured comparison, or worked examples you changed yourself. Every lesson is open without an account. Start where your background fits.
Fine-tune a model to answer questions with SQL
A before-and-after comparison on WikiSQL questions the model never trained on, showing which answers improved and which didn't. The optional lab runs on Apple Silicon.
