Franklin & Dad's AI workshop

We are building an Iron Golem named Bolt. Every day is a quest. Every model we train becomes an item in the Chest. Dad learns AI. Franklin crafts with him.

How this works

  • One hour a day. Dad learns real AI (neurons to transformers to training a language model).
  • Franklin learns too. Every idea is a craft recipe simple enough for a seven-year-old. First name only.
  • Crafting benches on every quest. Twist the blocks yourself in the browser.
  • Real command blocks. The Python that trains the model sits next to the story.
