2025 Class: Jai’s Last AI Builder Cohort
See what the mentorship sounds like
A look back at the people and projects from my 2025 AI builder cohort. Watch a clip, then read the full story.
Real stories
Student Testimonials
From scattered AI courses to feeling empowered.
Prior to taking this class, I was taking courses here, there, everywhere, but nothing seemed to stick. This class really has changed my mindset. I feel like I am empowered.
The possibilities finally became visible.
You don't know what you don't know until someone comes along and teaches you what the possibilities are. I can't thank Jai enough for opening my eyes to what's possible with AI.

These are real reviews from my nonprofit work with QEDC in Queens, NY. Inclusion and empowerment are the foundation of the study hall I am building next.
From advocacy to access
The next chapter is GPU Study Hall.
I started teaching about AI and the future of creative work in November 2022. In May 2024, I spoke at a United Nations roundtable. After years of teaching and advocating for free, I am working to fund the space I wish more builders had.
GPU Study Hall is the learning platform I am building for people aged 14 to 28. The goal is simple: let a young builder move from prompts to application code to GPU programming without needing a corporate credit card.
The plan is shared GPU infrastructure, sandboxed workspaces, and an AI mentor. Builders will be able to write CUDA kernels, train and fine-tune small open models, run inference, and experiment with robotics and generative art. Fair scheduling draws on the orchestration patterns I learned working with HashiCorp Nomad.
I am seeking compute and funding partners to make access free for young builders. Schools can help fund curriculum with compute included; companies can sponsor cohorts; chipmakers can help provide hardware. We will start with small, efficient models and grow with the community.
Learn by building
Start with a real project. Move from a useful app to the models and kernels behind it.
Share the compute
Make GPU time available across the community, with isolated workspaces and a fair queue.
Fund the next generation
Our first target: 50 active builders and 10 public AI or robotics projects within six months of launch.
The work started long before this room. The next step is giving more people the tools to build.

“A great teacher can impact an entire generation”
From 2.5 years of nothing to a first successful event.
I had dream that everyone was telling me to give up on when I started working with Jai. TWO AND HALF YEARS OF WORK and nothing to show for it. Three months later, I threw my first successful event.
From 4-hour nightly planning to less guilt.
I used to spend 4 hours every night planning my day and catching up on tasks, only to watch it all fall apart by lunchtime the next day. Jai taught me that my environment was fighting against me.
From scared of AI to having a thinking partner.
The day Jai showed me how to think WITH AI instead of just using AI tools, everything clicked. I went from being scared of being replaced to feeling like I had a thinking partner.
