Pacific-Design.com

pacific-design.com — artificial intelligence, section by section. A working map of the field: how the models actually work, how to use them well, and where things are going.

What it is

Most AI explainers are either a single overwhelming article or a course you have to enrol in. Pacific Design is neither: it is a map, laid out in fifteen sections in reading order, where each section leans on the ones before it and the numbers tell you what is assumed. Jump in anywhere; the ordering is a path, not a pile.

All fifteen planned sections are live, and the map now moves with the territory. It is free, there is no account, and nothing is tracked.

• 01–05 — Machine Learning Foundations, Applied & Classical ML, LLMs, Prompting, Agents
• 06–10 — RAG, Generative models, Vision, Speech, Safety
• 11–15 — Reinforcement Learning, Robotics, Infrastructure, Policy, History
• The Lab — 16 interactive instruments you drive in the browser, plus a glossary

Scale
