“For an individual human to thrive as the “Technical Singularity” (where everything changes all at once), each of us needs to be be part of a team who support each other. FutureTogether here makes that happen.”

We equip you to make money in a future of AI domination, managing AI automation:

• Building systems to evaluate AI performance
• Introducing AI automation into local businesses
• The orchestrator can route traffic to several tools, but chooses the tool with the best satisfaction and accuracy scores tracked over time.

The multi-agent AI system we show agents how to build:

• is run locally on a Mac Mini or similar class machine
• uses open-source
• interacts with mobile apps that run on Android and iPhones.

Content (learning) is presented in short (up to 8 second) videos as a multiple choice quiz. Selection of each option would lead to text or video. Videos are generated from text using Google Gemini Veo3. Comments can be added by others.

AI project: Drop pdf files on the GUI, then ask questions based on its content.

Instead of “Step-by-Step AI Tutorials”

Step-by-Step Hands-on Tutorials

Learn the how AI tools work with guided explanations at every step. No black boxes—real understanding.

Security for Productive Use

While other offering have students create mere games, ALL our sample projects demonstrate practical, real world tools for productive use.

Most tutorials which focus on fundamentals end up introducing security vulnerabilities. But “production-worthy” examples and tutorials here include security practices:

1. Code reviews are automatically requested of others at time of commit
2. Scans of code quality (ruff, etc.) are “hooked” to run upon git commit
3. The chain of module dependencies are identified in a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)

4. Dependency modules are checked to identify whether others have identified vulnerabilities

5. Runs are on isolated (local air gapped) machines unless networking is needed
6. Movement and deletion of data occurs according to GDPR and other laws

7. Data in transit are encrypted (HTTPS & VPN)

8. Backups are performed frequently and stored off-site
9. Restoreability of backups are tested as scheduled

10. Deletion of data is performed only under a separate account after a delay

11. Activities are performed under least-privilege permissions
12. Authentications use dynamically created short-term secrets

13. Verifiers of origin authenticity are inserted into assets

14. Only items of information necessary for a task are requested and displayed
15. Secrets are stored securely away from code repositories
16. Only hashes of customer-supplied secrets are stored in databases

17. Hash of files are created and checked to identify malicious replacements

18. Sensitive (secret) information is not stored in logs
19. Logging, Metrics, Traces are collected and retained

   “Commits.to has given me reason to pause before I rattle off an empty promise. I was in the habit of saying I would do things without a real intention to follow through on those statements in a consistent way. Now, I value maintaining my overall reliability instead of my agreeability in the moment.”

https://tron.fandom.com/wiki/Master_Control_Program The Master Control Program (or MCP) is the main antagonist in TRON. The MCP was a rogue computer program, created by Walter Gibbs and vastly improved by Ed Dillinger, that ruled over the world inside ENCOM’s mainframe computer system. During the rule of the MCP, many programs were enslaved and pitted against the program’s henchmen, led by Commander Sark.

jan.ai lets you download various LLMs from hugging face and run some of them locally. it also provides a server interface that is a subset of OpenAI

1. ai-edge-gallery.apk: Mobile (Android) GenAI Chat app which uses Hugging Face Integration to discover and download various on-device (local) LLM (LiteRT .tflite / .litert .task models). The app apk, built using Google AI-Edge Portal, is installed to demonstrate automation of test runs and presentation of results (TTFT, decode speed, latency) to benchmark performance among LiteRT-optimized models. App activities tested include:
   • Ask Image: Obtain an image of a homework problem and ask questions about it: descriptions, solve problems, or identify objects.
   • Prompt Lab: Upload a pdf and ask questions: summarize, rewrite, generate code, or use freeform prompts
   • AI Chat
