Vijay Janapa Reddi 56f374efa3 FOUNDATION: Establish AI Engineering as a discipline through TinyTorch
🎯 NORTH STAR VISION DOCUMENTED:
'Don't Just Import It, Build It' - Training AI Engineers, not just ML users

AI Engineering emerges as a foundational discipline like Computer Engineering,
bridging algorithms and systems to build the AI infrastructure of the future.

🧪 ROBUST TESTING FRAMEWORK ESTABLISHED:
- Created tests/regression/ for sandbox integrity tests
- Implemented test-driven bug prevention workflow
- Clear separation: student tests (pedagogical) vs system tests (robustness)
- Every bug becomes a test to prevent recurrence

 KEY IMPLEMENTATIONS:
- NORTH_STAR.md: Vision for AI Engineering discipline
- Testing best practices: Focus on robust student sandbox
- Git workflow standards: Professional development practices
- Regression test suite: Prevent infrastructure issues
- Conv->Linear dimension tests (found CNN bug)
- Transformer reshaping tests (found GPT bug)

🏗️ SANDBOX INTEGRITY:
Students need a solid, predictable environment where they focus on ML concepts,
not debugging framework issues. The framework must be invisible.

📚 EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY:
TinyTorch isn't just teaching a framework - it's founding the AI Engineering
discipline by training engineers who understand how to BUILD ML systems.

This establishes the foundation for training the first generation of true
AI Engineers who will define this emerging discipline.
