Our mission
Help individuals and companies become the best in the world at building, deploying, and selling AI.
We do this by partnering with seasoned operators from the top companies globally (think NVIDIA, OpenAI, Airbnb, Superhuman, Google) to bring extremely high quality education and training in AI craft.
Our values
What we stand for.
We never promote hype
No “AI wizardry in 3 hours.” If it won’t survive contact with real work, we won’t teach it.
We keep it simple
We cut the jargon and the noise, and teach only what you’ll actually use.
We never compromise on quality for growth
We’d rather stay small and excellent than scale and turn generic.
We want to be profitable, but we will never fully gate knowledge
There is always something self-contained on Luminary for everyone. We also offer financial aid to applicants currently looking for a job or running non-profit organizations.
