    Machine Learning is not easy, especially if you are a “self-taught” machine learning engineer. But that’s exactly what I did. In this video, I’m going to talk about 5 important steps you can take in order to become a self-taught machine learning engineer.
    1. Understand & Own your way of learning: Understand that machine learning is not easy. I know - shocking right? But that shouldn’t stop you. I started out with the mindset that I would master machine learning after completing a single course. Oh, how wrong I was. Realistically I soon realized that I would learn in increments, I would personally count gaining even 10% understanding from a single course as an achievement. And my understanding will improve over time from various recourses, like books, reading popular research papers, and doing projects.
    2. Focus on problems NOT tools. If you spend too much time trying to find the best language or the best tool, you will waste time instead of focusing on what is more important. Learning problem framing is essential when it comes to working as a machine learning engineer.
    3. Take ADVANTAGE of your existing domain knowledge. If you are already working in a certain field but want to shift to machine learning, take ADVANTAGE of your existing domain knowledge. Find a problem in your industry and try solving it with machine learning.
    4. Believe in yourself. I know you might be watching this video as some sort of validation, and that is fine. But the most important thing to realize is that you don't need me or someone else to tell you that you can learn machine learning. You need to start telling yourself that.
    5. Continuous learning.

    All those who don't know. This is a clickbait. She is not self-taught in anyway. She completed a Bachelors degree in Computer Science with a focus in Data Engineering. She later went for a Masters in Computer Science with a focus on Machine Learning. I actually became curious when she avoided mentioning what she Majored in in University. A quick google search revealed the obvious. When people talk about a self-taught machine learning engineer/ researcher, they are talking about someone who never received any college training in the field of Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics. I have seen this a lot people claiming they are self-taught in Machine learning whilst having a PhD in Statistics. That is not self taught. I think you get what I mean. It is intellectual dishonesty to claim you are self taught whilst holding a Masters in Computer Science.

    Although you mentioned your degree wasn't directly relevant to ML, realistically, do you believe you would have landed the same roles without a degree in Computer Science?

    I am so new to all this and quite frankly most of which seems overwhelming. Despite feeling as overwhelmed as I do, it's so interesting. I can't stop watching, and the more I watch, the more compelled I feel to go ahead and make my transition from the commercial transportation industry. Your dialogue to your approach to learning and analysation of your pace is certainly immersive. Thanks, it helps a lot!

    Different people might have diff definitions. To me this sounds more like data scientist than ML engineer as MLE is typically more tool/algo/platform oriented than business problem oriented.

    If AI and ML is going to make software engineers obsolete (take over their jobs), then does it still make sense for existing engineers to learn ML/AI ?

Will there be a problem , that my web-designing work that i will do daily, will affect my AI and ML learning journey ?

    We cannot learn ML by focusing only on tools, but we can't DO ML without mastering the tools !! So we need both - rigorous theory underlying the ML concepts including the mathematical focmulation of the problems, and the tools that implement these. One problem with tools is that they abstract away some of the most important concepts and still give you a feeling of the "expert", but that's a "one trick pony" kind of expertise and will only lead you into blind alleys.

Am so overwhelmed how people try to take advantage of people because they are not disciplined enough to do their research. Thank you so much and I cant wait to start with the roadmap you kept out there for free. May God bless you sister!
