I have also started learning NLP this year. Here is what have followed.
If you are completely new to deeplearning I would recommend course from https://www.fast.ai. Since it will teach you the concepts in a more practical way and also the next courses will more theory than practical.
For theory on NLP with deeplearning you can follow Stanford course by Christopher Manning.
it will give you a good understanding of how deeplearning is used in a certain area of NLP. But remember deeplearning is one of the techniques for solving NLP problems if you are more interested in Understanding NLP then I would recommend the following book.
Although, Stanford course should give you a great high-level understanding of how GPT models work but if you really need to go under the hood then I would suggest after finishing this course you should learn Unsupervised Learning in DeepLearning.
