You’re one step from a global AI community

Learners, builders, educators and mentors from 34 countries keep learning together here, between cohorts and long after them. Here’s everything waiting on the other side of signup. It’s free to join.

What you get

Eight reasons members stay

Every FWA program, cohort and event connects back here, so the learning keeps going between sessions.

Hear it first

New cohorts, hackathons and speaker sessions land in Announcements before anywhere else, so you never miss an application window.

Get unstuck

Post a question about an AI tool, a prompt or a project in Ask the Community. Someone has probably hit the same wall and found the way around it.

Show your builds

Share what you built, shipped or learned in Wins and Builds. A first prompt that worked counts, and people cheer it on.

Live every Friday

Future World Conversations bring practitioners and learners together live, Fridays at 8:00 AM PT. The Events channel has what’s coming up and the recordings.

Meet mentors

Mentors and volunteers from across industries share their time here. Ask how they got started, or how they’d tackle what you’re building.

Get ready for Launchpad

AI Launchpad returns January 4, 2027. Its channel has the schedule, the ten tracks, and other learners getting ready alongside you.

Find collaborators

Team up on hackathon builds, meet community partners like Lucky Day Labs, and find ways to put your AI skills to work.

Tools worth your time

Members share the guides, talks and tools that actually helped them, so you skip the noise.

A place for everyone

No programming background needed. Everyone here started somewhere, and the house rules keep it kind.

After you join

Your first three steps

  • Say hello in Introductions: who you are, where you’re from, and one thing you’d like to build with AI.
  • Share progress in Wins and Builds, however small.
  • Stuck? Ask in Ask the Community.
House rules

How we treat each other

  • Be kind and assume good intent. Everyone here started somewhere.
  • Use AI responsibly: say when something was AI-generated, and check facts before you share them.
  • Keep private things private, including your own personal details.
  • No spam or selling. Sharing your own project is welcome; cold pitches aren’t.
  • Credit people’s work and link your sources.
Before you join

Questions people ask first

Does it cost anything?

No. The FWA Community is free to join and free to stay in.

Do I need to know AI or how to code?

No. Plenty of members joined having never written a prompt. Ask anything in Ask the Community, and you’ll find people a few steps ahead of you who remember being where you are.

Do I have to be in an FWA program?

No. Anyone curious about AI is welcome. The community is also where AI Launchpad learners, alumni and mentors stay connected between cohorts.

Who will I meet?

Learners, alumni, educators, builders and mentors from more than 34 countries and 170 cities, working in every field you can think of.

How much time does it take?

As much as you like. Some members read Announcements once a week, some drop into the Friday session, and some post builds every day.

How is this different from the newsletter?

The newsletter tells you what’s happening. The community is where you take part: ask questions, share your work, and get to know the people behind it.

Is it safe and moderated?

Yes. Everyone agrees to the house rules above, any member can report a post, and FWA moderators review what’s reported. No spam or selling is allowed.

What happens with my information?

You sign up with your name and email. We use them to run the community and never sell them. Read the details in our privacy policy.
