Beyond having foundational skills in mathematics and computer science and soft skills like problem-solving and communication, core to the AI and machine learning space is programmingspecifically Python. The programming language is one of the most in-demand for all tech experts.
Python plays an integral part of machine learning specialists everyday tasks, says Ratinder Paul Singh Ahuja, CTO and VP at Pure Storage. He specifically points its diverse set of libraries and their relevant roles:
As you can imagine, the best practices in the everchanging AI may differ depending on the day, task, and company. So, building foundational skills overalland being able to differentiate yourselfis important in the space.
The good news for those who are looking to learn the ropes in the machine learning and Python space, there are seemingly endless ways to gain knowledge onlineand even for free.
For those exploring the subject on your own, resources like W3Schools, Kaggle, and Googles crash course are good options. Even as simple as watching YouTube videos and checking out GitHub can be useful.
I think if you focus on core technical skills, and also the ability to differentiate, I think that theres still plenty of opportunity for AI enthusiasts to get into the market, says Rakesh Anigundi, Ryzen AI product lead at AMD.
Anigundi adds that because the field and job market is so complicated, even companies themselves are trying to figure out what are the most useful skills to build products and solve problems. So, doing anything you can to stay ahead of the game can be part of what helps propel your career.
For those looking for a little bit of a deeper dive into machine learning with Python, Fortune has listed some of the options on the market; theyre largely self-paced but vary slightly in terms of price and length.
