Academy: leveled learning for people starting from zero

The Academy is planned, and nothing is published here yet. When it opens, it will teach AI itself: how the technology works, how to use it in day-to-day work, and how to judge what is worth buying. It runs as a curriculum in three levels, Beginner, Practitioner, and Strategic, in which every lesson has a stated learning goal and a fixed place in a sequence. It opens when a full level is written and coherent, because half a curriculum teaches nobody anything.

What this section will be

• — Every lesson will state at the top what a reader will be able to do with AI by the end of it.
• — Lessons will sit in the Beginner, Practitioner, or Strategic track, and each will name the lessons it assumes you have done.
• — Nothing will be published here as a standalone post outside a track.
• — Any tool named in a lesson will link to our dated investigation of it and be held to the same evidence rules.

What you can read today

What exists today is the reference material a curriculum points at: 76 tool investigations and 15 category rankings, maintained and dated. The order in which the remaining sections ship is published on our about page.
