The book starts by guiding readers on selecting the right model architecture for their application, be it text generation, image synthesis, or multimodal tasks. It then walks through essential components of model training, including dataset handling, self-supervised learning, and core optimisation techniques such as backpropagation, gradient descent, and learning rate scheduling. It also delves into large-scale training infrastructure, covering GPU/TPU usage, distributed computing frameworks, and system-level strategies for scaling performance. Practical guidance is provided on fine-tuning models with domain-specific data and applying reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), model quantisation, and pruning to improve efficiency. Key challenges in generative AI—such as overfitting, bias, hallucination, and data efficiency—are addressed through proven techniques and emerging best practices. Readers will also gain insight into model interpretability and generalisation, ensuring robust and trustworthy outputs. The book demonstrates how to build scalable, production-ready generative systems across domains like media, healthcare, scientific simulation, and design through real-world examples and applied case studies.
By the end, readers will gain an understanding of how to architect, optimise, and apply generative models across diverse domains such as media creation, healthcare, design, scientific simulation, and beyond.
What you will learn;
