LLM Paper Reading Group

​We’re a community dedicated to understanding the foundations of large language models through thoughtful, rigorous discussion. Each week, we gather in downtown Vancouver to engage with influential papers, exchange ideas, and learn together in a welcoming, intellectually curious environment.

Please read the paper beforehand (It's okay not to understand everything), meeting is primarily for discussion.
