AI Engineering from Scratch hits 299 lessons

AI Engineering from Scratch is an open-source, MIT-licensed course that now lists 299 lessons across 20 phases, taking learners from linear algebra to autonomous agent swarms. Each lesson follows the same loop: build from scratch, use the real framework, then ship a reusable tool.

// ANALYSIS

This is a serious curriculum, not a lightweight tutorial series. The strongest idea is the repeatable workflow: concept, implementation, then artifact, which turns learning into a portfolio instead of passive consumption.

  • The scope is unusually broad for one repo: math, classical ML, deep learning, LLMs, agents, and deployment infrastructure all sit in one path
  • The from-scratch-first structure should help people understand why the abstractions work before they reach PyTorch, sklearn, or inference tooling
  • The built-in Claude Code skills make it more AI-native than most courses, because the repo itself participates in assessment and placement
  • The course is especially useful for engineers who already use AI tools but want to move from prompt consumption to systems they can build and reuse
  • The risk is ambition: 299 lessons can overwhelm learners unless the phase selection and onboarding stay sharply curated
