New 'Understanding Deep Learning' Book Reading Group

Just a quick message to say that in the fast-bunnies study group channel on the fastai Discord server we have just started having a weekly book reading and discussion each Wednesday at 3pm UTC.

We’re covering the ‘Understanding Deep Learning’ book by Simon Prince. There is a free PDF version accessible online. We have a rough goal of going through a chapter a week, and we covered chapters 1 & 2 in the first session this week.

The format each week is pretty informal, really just a place to help keep each other motivated and accountable, and for a discussion of issues and insight into the material presented in the book.

If you have time the ideal preparation for each session is:

  • Read through the relevant book chapter for the week.
  • Attempt the notebook challenges and problem sets, time permitting.
  • Watch the relevant video from the San Diego UDL reading group. (recommended!)

In between each Wed. session feel free to post progress, or questions in the fast-bunnies study group channel. Why not stop by and say hello! :slightly_smiling_face:

We’re all in the process of learning and it’s always helpful to have insights and feedback from others. We’re quite a small pack, so any extra pair of hands (and brain) is welcome!
