Can the instructors make maybe a video explaining the ungraded lab? That will be useful. Other students find it difficult to understand both LSH attention layer ungraded lab. Thanks

The course is a very comprehensive one and covers all state-of-the-art techniques used in NLP. It's quite an advanced level course and a good python coding skill is a must.

Even though this is better than the other 3 courses in the specialization it's not really any different from reading a few posts on popular machine learning blogs about the technologies they present here. I would understand if the instructors brought some insights, but it's largely just repeating what they have in the slide which in turn is just bare minimum about how to make these concepts work (which again can be found through papers + free resources).
Overall, I would recommend against taking this course since there are better or equal materials available.

Everything was good except that this course uses Trax. This framework has yet to have any new releases since 2021, and I cannot manage to train deep learning models using Trax on my GPU, not even possible in Colab. Trax is also very buggy and it does not have a large community to help. Recommendation for learners: take the course after it is fully rebooted to TensorFlow unless you want to take other courses to get useful/working code for NLP.

Compared to Andrew Ng's deep learning specialization, this course requires a lot of improvement. Very often disparate facts are put together with not much connection between the ideas. This is probably because of the enormous amount of content covered. It might make sense to split the course into two. Thank you!

The course lectures were very confusing, and the course assignments were too easy, so they didn't reinforce the lecture concepts in the same way that assignments from other courses had.

Disappointed. Course 4 is much more difficult to follow than other courses in this NLP specification plus other deeplearning.ai course.

The Course topics are great but it could be much better by explaning the topics with much more details and providing more examples.

Like: State-of-the-art NLP problems to be used in the industry.
Dislike: Topics were not well-explained. Difficult to grasp

Trax is no longer in active development.

Probably one of the worst courses I have ever taken. By week3 I am completely lost and cant make head or tail of the content. Fine tuning the model ? My foot! The videos seemed mug up and the colab material doesnt work, I cant see any fine tuning at all.
All in all horrible course which fails on all fronts of learning.
This has been a glorius level of time sink. I will issue a chargeback from my credit card .

Course content was not educational and the assignments only evaluated python skills rather than DL knowledge.

As much as Andrew's AI course is good, that much this one is bad. Poorly presented useless material.

This course sucks. The instructor cannot express concept clearly. Don't take this course.

Too easy. I can say I almost didn't learn anything.
