I'm a high school student (rising junior) who's heard and read a lot about LLM's recently. Any advice on getting into the field? I'm thinking of studying C and Python. I've previously done a bit of Java (AP CS A) and have taken high school math classes (Taking AP Calc BC next year).
At a high level, Stephen Wolfram's "What is ChatGPT" video and accompanying blog post are a great introduction and may give you some ideas about what topics to learn from there.

There's tons of book, but I recommend this since it's hands on "Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and TensorFlow" https://www.amazon.com/Hands-Machine-Learning-Scikit-Learn-T...

download some local LLMs and play with them along the way. Good luck.
