First Principles: 48 Rungs to Building AI from Scratch
A sequential map from the first logic gate to reinforcement learning — an explanation, a worked example, and a mastery gate at every step.
What’s inside
- 48 numbered rungs in six phases: foundational logic, mathematical structures, calculus and computation, linear algebra, probability and optimization, and building AI
- A plain-language explanation of every rung — why the idea matters and how it builds on the one before
- A worked example or hands-on task per rung: build a logic circuit, prove a theorem, train an RL agent
- A mastery gate per rung — a checkable task to clear before moving on, so progress is demonstrated rather than assumed
- 64-page print-ready PDF with margins set for binding, plus a QR code to the live version at first.schoolhouse.space
Print-ready PDF. Each page carries a small footer credit with your email address.
