TrenTorch

Report

We aim to make frontier AI education free for the world to learn and build. TrenTorch is an open-source team building an educational, from-scratch machine learning curriculum: tensor to transformer, built by hand with just NumPy underneath. The CLI (TrenTorch) is our implementation of Harvard's TinyTorch (CS249r), rebuilt in our own style and pushed further; TrenTorch-Web is our own browser-based version of the same curriculum, built independently. Funding keeps the curriculum free and funds the team building it.

Projects
