<p>We strip away the biological metaphors of AI to reveal the mechanical reality: differentiable decision trees. We explore the Forward Pass, the role of ReLU as a logic gate, and why "Deep" hierarchies work. Finally, we break down the hardware reality—why CPUs are Ferraris, NPUs are Bullet Trains, and why memory bandwidth is the only metric that matters.</p>

Neural Network Architecture: The 10,000-Foot View

Sandboxed is a podcast for iOS developers who want to add AI and machine learning features to their apps—without needing a PhD in ML. Each episode, we take one practical topic—like Vision, Core ML, or Apple Intelligence—and walk through how it works, what you can build with it, and how to ship it.
