Today, more people than ever are trying to learn AI. Although there are countless free learning resources online, navigating this rapidly evolving landscape can be overwhelming (especially as a beginner). In this article, I discuss how I’d approach learning AI, given what I know now and the tools available today.

Who is this for?

Given the wide range of backgrounds interested in AI these days, I’ve tried to make this guide widely accessible. However, no guide can help everyone. Here are a few specific groups I have in mind.

  • Technical professionals trying to up-skill for career advancement
  • Business leaders who haven’t coded in years, trying to keep up with the changing tech landscape
  • Entrepreneurs building AI-native products
  • Students trying to develop their technical AI skills
