I
Origins of AI
History, machine learning, neural networks, and the datasets that fuel them.
LLMispower
Conquer AI, don't let it conquer you.
I write GAIN — Grow with AI NOW, a six-part, 25-chapter course that takes you from "what even is AI?" to shipping a real AI-powered product. No hype, no jargon left unexplained — a mechanically honest look at how these systems actually work, and how to use them well.
The GAIN roadmap
25 chapters across 6 parts, from first principles to a shipped product.
II
How LLMs Work
Tokenization, embeddings, and the transformer architecture behind ChatGPT and Claude.
III
How AI Thinks and Fails
Context windows, hallucination, sampling, bias, safety, and multimodal AI.
IV
Talking to AI
Prompting techniques, system prompts, and choosing between GPT, Claude, and Gemini.
V
Using AI in Practice
Everyday productivity, content creation across every medium, and your first API call.
VI
Building with AI Builder Track
Structured output, tool use, RAG, AI agents, and a full SaaS application.
✓
Grounded, not hype-driven
Every part corrects at least one popular AI oversimplification instead of repeating it.
✓
One example, start to finish
A running example — a small business owner named Maya — ties every chapter together.
✓
Hands-on, not just reading
"Try it" exercises in every chapter, whether you stop at Part 5 or go all the way to Part 6.
The library
Every part of GAIN, available on its own or as the complete course.
