Automated helpers
Not live staff
The support chat on this site is an automated helper, not a live chat with Kash. Some production help is also done by automated assistants. Kash reviews what goes out.
People
Meet the staff
A small team: one instructor, one mascot, and some automated helpers. This is not an accredited institution, and it is not affiliated with any college or university.
Founder & Lead Instructor
Kash Greenstone
Kash Greenstone is the founder and lead instructor of the Ctrl Alt Create Academy. He builds with free, open-source AI on his own hardware — a Legion laptop running Ubuntu — and he started Ctrl Alt Create in November 2026 with a simple mission: empower creators to build with free, open-source AI running entirely on their own hardware — no subscriptions, no gatekeepers, just tools you control. His first video walks through installing Kokoro text-to-speech on Ubuntu, the same kind of hands-on lesson the Academy is built on. Fitness is part of the channel too: Kash films at the gym, and a calorie meter stays on screen, a thread that now continues in Token Breakers Athletics. On weekends he records a podcast. Alongside the Academy, he also runs his own businesses, Orbit Rentals and Akashi Properties. He is based in Northern California, and he is writing Book 1, coming soon.

Academy Mascot
Rex
Good boy, great keyboard, and mascot of Token Breakers Athletics. Rex has never pushed to main without a test — mostly because he has no thumbs.
