Interactive explainers have been developed to help users understand foundational machine learning papers through simulations rather than just equations. These explainers cover topics such as Attention, Word2Vec, Backpropagation, and Diffusion Models, providing 2-4 interactive simulations for each. The aim is to demystify complex concepts by allowing users to engage with the material, such as building query vectors or exploring embedding spaces. The platform is built using Astro and Svelte, with simulations running client-side, and it seeks feedback on future topics like the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis and GANs. This approach enhances comprehension by focusing on the "why" behind the concepts, making advanced ML topics more accessible. Understanding these core concepts is crucial as they form the backbone of many modern AI technologies.
