Description
The charred landscape of artificial intelligence tools is a deadly traversal. Some fear AI entirely, choosing to stick their heads underground and remain oblivious. Others, more enthusiastic, migrate toward the double-edged sword of the Big Tech options, in the process exposing themselves to the dangers of surveillance and censorship. And oh, does the censorship go deep. We say that there is yet another choice.
Join us in this course as we teach you how AI works in its current form. No exaggeration or rose-colored lenses: only a practical survey of the field. We explain in basic English how AI was created: how it works. We then show off the Big Tech tools in their full and clear functionality. But then we go off-grid, showing you how to download offline AI for your own private and uncensored use. We get more radical: we show you how to use AI tools for defense against the Technocracy. The course concludes with a deep skeptical conversation about where AI is going, whether it is good, and whether we are contributing to it by using the tools.
AI is with us whether we would have it or not. In its best form it can enhance your knowledge and productivity: to generate amazing art with a single textual prompt. Why not learn it from the people who understand it, understand its dangers, and can guide you through its unsteady waters? We’re here to help … if you want.
