Overview

This notebook covers constitutional ai in depth, providing hands-on implementation and conceptual understanding. Open the notebook in Google Colab using the button above to run all code interactively on a free GPU.

What You'll Build

By completing this notebook, you'll implement a working version of the concepts from scratch and understand how they connect to the broader LLM training pipeline.

Prerequisites

Complete the previous notebook in the stage before starting this one. Each notebook builds on concepts from the previous session.

Open in Colab

Click the "Open in Google Colab" button above to launch this notebook. Make sure to switch the runtime to GPU (Runtime → Change runtime type → T4 GPU) before running cells.
