🚨 Bootcamps are charging $15k just to teach you how to call the OpenAI API.
Meanwhile, this open-source curriculum just dropped 435 lessons to help you build AI from the ground up.
It spans 20 phases and ~320 hours. But the best part is the philosophy: you don't touch PyTorch until you understand exactly what it’s doing under the hood.
Here is the full stack:
→ Phase 0-2 (Foundations): Linear algebra and probability through code, plus classical ML from scratch.
→ Phase 3-6 (Deep Learning): Neural networks from first principles. No frameworks.
→ Phase 7-9 (Architectures): Transformers, Generative AI, and Reinforcement Learning. You implement attention yourself.
→ Phase 10-11 (LLMs): Build, train, and deploy large language models.
→ Phase 12-13 (Multimodal): Vision, audio, and MCP server integration.
→ Phase 14-16 (Agents): 42 lessons on agent engineering, including a custom ReAct loop in ~120 lines of pure Python.
→ Phase 17-19 (Production): Infra, deployment, observability, and safety.
→ Phase 20 (Capstones): 17 shippable projects.
Every single lesson ships a real artifact: a prompt, a skill, an agent, or an MCP server.
You don't just learn AI. You build it by hand.
