Whare are we headed in 2026?
I always appreciate Lex Fridman’s technical depth across diverse topics. His latest podcast immediately caught my attention: Sebastian Raschka discussing potential LLM breakthroughs in 2026. Sebastian’s expertise provides valuable insights into upcoming LLM advancements that technologists should consider.
As a Manning Publications Technical Editor/Reviewer, I’m familiar with Sebastian’s work. He’s the author of Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch)
and
Build a Reasoning Model (From Scratch) . If you want to deepen your understanding of LLM internals and architecture, these books are excellent resources.
