Building Intelligence

AI Systems Engineering: From Machine Learning to Generative Intelligence

A DeepRat Educative Lab Program

From Models to Minds

Building Intelligence is an open, structured and hands-on educational journey through the modern landscape of Artificial Intelligence — from classical Machine Learning to Generative and Agentic Systems.

Inspired by the spirit of open education — and by Python para Todos, which once opened a door for me — this program exists to open that same door for anyone curious enough to step through.
