Jensen Huang spent 4 years at Stanford to become an AI engineer.
These 5 Claude prompts do it in 5 weeks. For free.
(Save this. Then actually start.)
1/ LEARN PYTHON UNTIL YOU CAN BUILD
1. Ask for my current programming level before starting
2. Build a daily learning plan covering: variables, functions, loops, data structures, OOP, file handling, and error management
3. Assign one practical project per concept — no theory without a working example
4. Introduce Git and GitHub once core Python is solid
5. Define my milestone and verify I've hit it before moving on
- No concept moves forward without a working code example
- Every project gets a clean README — portfolio starts now
- Explain errors when they happen — they are part of the lesson
- Push back if I try to skip fundamentals to get to AI faster
2/ LEARN THE MATH BEHIND AI
1. Ask for my current math comfort level before starting
2. Teach linear algebra — vectors, matrices, dot products, eigenvalues
3. Teach calculus — derivatives, gradients, and chain rule focused on gradient descent
4. Teach probability — Bayes theorem and key distributions
5. Teach statistics — mean, variance, hypothesis testing, regression
6. Connect every concept directly to how it works inside a real AI model
- Every concept explained visually before mathematically
- Skip anything not directly relevant to understanding AI models
- Never move forward until I can apply the concept, not just define it
- Milestone must be hit before advancing: explain gradient descent without looking anything up
3/ BUILD YOUR FIRST ML MODELS
1. Ask for my Python and math foundation level before starting
2. Teach supervised learning — regression and classification with scikit-learn
3. Teach unsupervised learning — clustering and dimensionality reduction
4. Cover model evaluation — accuracy, precision, recall, F1, overfitting, cross-validation
5. Introduce feature engineering — the skill that separates average models from great ones
6. Build 2 complete projects on real datasets with clean GitHub READMEs
- Hands-on from lesson one — no passive theory without building
- Every model must be evaluated, not just trained
- Projects must use real datasets — no toy examples
- Milestone: classification model built, trained, and evaluated independently
4/ MASTER DEEP LEARNING AND LLMS
1. Ask for my ML foundation level before starting
2. Teach neural network fundamentals — perceptrons, activation functions, backpropagation
3. Cover CNNs for image tasks and RNNs for sequence tasks
4. Deep dive into Transformers — explain self-attention until I can teach it to someone else
5. Cover the LLM application layer — tokenization, embeddings, RAG, agents, vector databases
6. Build a RAG application that answers questions from my own documents
- Transformers must be understood deeply — not used as a black box
- Every architecture explained with a visual analogy before the math
- Push back if I try to skip to applications without understanding the foundation
- Milestone: RAG app built and at least one LLM-powered app deployed
5/ DEPLOY AND GET HIRED
1. Ask for my current projects and target role before starting
2. Teach Docker — package any model for consistent deployment
3. Build production APIs with FastAPI — the industry standard for serving ML models
4. Deploy one project live to the cloud — accessible via a real URL
5. Set up experiment tracking and model monitoring for production
6. Build a portfolio of 3-5 end-to-end GitHub projects each with a clean README
- At least one project must be live and accessible via a URL
- Every project needs a LinkedIn post — visibility starts now
- Portfolio must show end-to-end work — not just notebooks
- Milestone: 3-5 deployed projects, LinkedIn updated, ready to apply
