✨ Starting 2026 with a builder’s mindset ✨

If one of your goals this year is to build your own language model from scratch, you’re already on the right path.

As part of my 21 Days of Building a Small Language Model journey (we’ve just reached Day 15 🚀), and thanks to our sponsor, I’m giving away 5 free copies of my book to the community.

How to participate:

📌Follow the 21 Days of Building a Small Language Model series

📌If you’ve learned anything from it so far

📌Create a post sharing your takeaway and tag me

That’s it.

I’ll pick 5 lucky builders and share the book with them as a small way of saying thank you for showing up and learning in public.

Let’s keep building. Let’s push our limits. And let’s make 2026 the year we stop consuming and start creating.

🎉 Happy New Year in advance!
