From answer of @Taylor and @Zhanxiong from this link In a GLM, is the log likelihood of the saturated model always zero?

Is it true that there are 2 ways to estimate the saturated model:

  1. invert the design matrix $\mathbb{X}$ to calculate vector $\beta$ (answer of @Taylor)

  2. using MLE method to calculate the $\theta$. (answer of @Zhanxiong)

I'm wondering if these 2 methods are equivalent and if they produce the same saturated model ? I believe they do but don't know why

(because in the 2nd way, I see that we don't have a vector of coefficients $\beta$, just the vector or parameter of the distribution $\theta$, I wonder how can we obtain the vector $\beta$ after estimating the $\theta$ ?)

Thank you very much!
