Writing about idle.py? Recording a YouTube video? Teaching with it? Everything you need is below. We’re happy to answer questions and provide review copies on request.
The pitch (one line)
idle.py is an incremental idle game that quietly teaches you Python and modern AI engineering — from your first variable binding through transformer internals, distributed training, and the alignment frontier — one tap at a time.
Who it’s for
CS undergrads who want a low-stakes way to internalise AI fundamentals, working developers breaking into ML, idle-game players who like the genre but wish it taught them something, and educators looking for a side-quest companion to a Python or ML course.
