Subjects
The academy
Ten subjects. Autonomous AI is the spine. Every other course practices the same rule: try first, hint second, evaluate always.
The spine
Autonomous AI
What an agent is, what it is not, and how to stay the operator.
Every sitting practices the rule: try first, hint second, evaluate always, parent in the loop.

The filter
Critical Thinking
Claims, counterclaims, and what would change your mind.
Treat every model output as a classmate's draft: interesting, unchecked, not a source.

The forge
Wisdom & Philosophy
The Stoics and the examined life, rewritten for the age in the chair.
The booklet is the text. The guide asks; it does not recite. Inner freedom is not an app setting.

Number
Mathematics
Estimate, show the method, then ask a tool to check the path — never the soul of the work.
AI may review a method you already wrote. It may not be the first hand that touches the problem.

Nature
Science
Hypothesis before search. The universe is not a chatbot.
Write the guess and the test. Then, if you ask a model, hunt for what would prove it wrong.

Letters
English
You write the draft. The guide is an editor who asks questions, not an author with your name on it.
No hidden AI homework. If a sentence isn't yours, it doesn't go in the folder.

Then
History
Primary sources first. Summaries — human or machine — are claims.
A model that compresses the past will flatten the people in it. Check the source.

Make
Art
Hands before generate. Taste is a muscle. Tools are not a substitute for seeing.
Make something ugly on purpose. Then discuss what a generator averages away.

Systems
Computer Science
Specify the agent: soul, tools, refuse-list. Code is permission made explicit.
Autonomy is a design choice. If a tool is on, you chose it. If it is off, that is the lesson.

Voice
World Languages
Say it yourself. A model can drill; it cannot take the exam of being understood.
Practice partner, not ghost-speaker. Record your own mouth. The guide waits.
