The Prof Rod community

A free account opens the self-paced courses and saves your progress. The book and articles are open without one.

The newsletter is a separate, optional step below.

Where are you starting?

Your notebook needs to become an application

You know Python and experiments. Work through the steps between a promising result and an application you can run, test and explain.

Find a course to build from

A customer needs an AI integration

You know the APIs and the business problem. Learn to bound the AI task, define acceptance checks and explain its limits to the team receiving it.

Find a path for your project

Your AI system failed. What now?

You already ship AI applications. Follow the code and failure cases in the agent book, then inspect what an intervention changes and what it leaves unresolved.

Annual membership

Free community access, plus group office hours with Rod.

  • Selected cases examined together
  • The attempted work, its checks and the decisions still open

Rod chooses the cases. It’s a group session, not private consulting, and not every member’s question gets solved.

See annual membership

The cohort is a separate application for frontier-lab candidates who want to derive, run and write up one experiment on a real model. It is not a membership tier; Rod gives dates and price in his reply.

Before you join

Do I need to be an AI engineer already?

Choose material for the work you are learning to do. Each course lists its prerequisites. You can start with foundations in an unfamiliar topic even if you have years of software or data experience.

Is there a chat group or personal project review?

The free community is the courses, your saved progress and the weekly newsletter. Paid office hours examine selected cases as a group. There is no private chat group, individual consulting or review of every member’s project.

Can I use my account without the newsletter?

Yes. Newsletter signup is a separate step below account registration. You can unsubscribe from any email and keep your account and course access.
