Training an LLM from Scratch, Locally — Angelos Perivolaropoulos, ElevenLabs

Training an LLM from scratch on a local machine sounds unreasonable, until it isn't. In this workshop, Angelos Perivolaropoulos from ElevenLabs walks through what it actually takes to train a language model locally, with a practical focus on the tooling, constraints, and engineering tradeoffs involved. If you want a hands-on look at small-scale LLM training beyond the cloud-heavy default, this is a useful deep dive.
