I Tried Learning AI While Working Full-time. Here’s What Happened
With the growing dominance of AI in the tech industry, the demand for skills in this field has risen exponentially. However, learning AI while working a full-time job is not an easy task. I was driven by the tempting Google certifications and the opportunity to jump into this quickly developing field. Here are the tips and resources I discovered to balance the two.
Learn to time-block
Having the majority of my weekdays consumed with meetings and work responsibilities, I had to plan diligently how much study time I could squeeze out. The early mornings, late nights, and weekends became rare chances to plunge into online courses, tutorials as well as books on AI basics. I began time-blocking my day to guarantee I would find the necessary time. If you are not structuring your day properly, you are going to end the day so exhausted you won’t be able to focus on studying.
