There are probably more than a thousand articles teaching you what is attention. I’ve heard the talks quite some times too. Here’s by far the clearest article:
只用小学数学带你读懂AI封神论文《Attention Is All You Need》
(Only use primary school mathematics to take you to understand the AI Fengshen paper “Attention Is All You Need”)
Apple’s Safari built in web translator can even translate text in pictures — making cross-language information much easier to access. Nevertheless, you can always feed the og paper into AI to ask for a “primary school level” break down. Though I think this article is probably mostly written by human and of very high quality.
