@@boldmeditations I'm doing Angela Yu's 100Days. It starts gearing towards Web Development but she does some great projects which gives you hands-on Python basics to semi-advanced knowledge and applications, with some ML applications too.

i think reading a paper is a great skill at the end . if u can understand what people did how they did it's great checkmark that u have reached a certain point of advance level of ml
I am a Business Consultant with 2.3 years of experience, and I'm planning to transition into the Data Science field. I was just looking out for guidance on how to get started. Thank you so much! I found it very informative.
As a PhD student in NLP, I completely approve your recommendations! These are relevant, concrete and feasible steps so thank you very much for presenting this in that very pleasant way. I would maybe add something regarding college students that may wonder if they should start with math or computer science majors to work in machine/deep learning top companies. My advice relying on my experience is: start with math. It is, to my mind, far easier to learn computer science concepts when you already got the maths principles. I do have a math background initially and I struggle a bit at the beginning of my journey with some software engineering aspects of project development, but I am convinced that I would have struggled way more if I had to learn math concepts from scratch by the end of my degree.
Thank you very much for the insight! I really appreciate it and value it, that you approve of what I say 💛 But yes, maths is always the biggest blocker for people wanting to get started with ML. I think both paths (Maths first, or maths second) are viable and depend on the person. I know some (probably most) people might be frustrated right away when they just start with pure maths (I personally love maths :)). That's why I think starting with something fun like programming basics is a good idea. As mentioned in the video, no step really needs to be fully completed one after the other. You can also learn maths and python side by side. Mix and match to your desire, as long as you put in the time, and enjoy it, everyone can learn machine learning. And If you are in college doing CS, you will have linear algebra and calculus courses anyway haha. You just need to appreciate the content and power through! Again, thank you for your comment! 😊
what do you mean by "math"? Do you mean more than second year stats, calc1-3 and linear algebra? if yes, then perhaps the math major recommendation makes sense.
As an MSc Computational Physics student and a beginner in learning machine learning who has done some research on how to teach myself ML, a lot of what you said is consistent with my own conclusions and how I would approach the self-learning process. Great video! Subscribed.
hello sir, i am a junior physics student. can you give me some advice on machine learning? is there something you wish you had done earlier? or can you suggest how I should plan my path? it would also be great if you have any project ideas.
These are three people I would recommend to follow. Andrew NG, Andrej Karpathy, and Jeremy Howard. Sequester from rest of the crowd and videos. Protect your priors
the more knowladge you obtain on a subject gives you more facts about its truth so you have better undetstanding of what you really know and what you dont.... that doeasnt mean tho that you are not in a high level in general
it will never stop... two MSC's om System Design Programming and Comp /Network Security, 25y experience in building systems and design network arch learned like 12-15 different prog langs and yupie Im here watching tutorial from a 22-25 y old about ML and what is the best approach to ML in 2024...
@@kpwlek mind blowing🤯! I think learning is driven by curiosity. When we do a deep dive on a particular topic there's always something which we are not learning. And later that might seems interesting which we start learning. For me this is the cycle
For the math part I highly recommend the "Mathematics for Machine Learning" book. It covers all the important stuff without going too much into the details (and gives you the foundation in case you later still want to get into those details). Oh, and it's free.
Thank you for this! I'm starting my neuroscience PhD soon, and I want to implement ML to aid my projects. Your video provides a super helpful framework going forward :)
Frankly this is where i really messed up. I learned python and straight up jumped to learning the ML tech stack. Completely ignoring the math. When i got into NN and deep learning, my lack of math knowledge sent me crashing down coz i kept learning math stuff in bits and pieces only for what i was learning in deep learning at the time. It got chaotic and led to lots of failure in tasks and interviews. Finally an interviewer told me that there is no point going advance if i dont know the basics. I went back to learning math properly and while its been really challenging to study with a pen and paper instead of coding all the time... i know i am now on the right path.
As a comsci major who did some AI as a hobby then formally taking a module on it, I'm burnt out due to the same issue. Its very easy to say just rely on some existing neural network architecture, and ignore the fundamental math principles behind it. The thing is the math (e.g deriatives, linear algebra, statistics) is what drives the algorithms in the first place. By know the math, you know what metrics are appropriate, what other approaches that are more efficient can solve the problem quickly. But its intimidating since most of the data are working in arbitrary higher dimensions that what I learnt before, and its hard to visualize, but less connect the math you prove into code.
Yes, I see... I am sure this is a common problem people have. Maths is scary. I feel like really understanding the basic is important, but expecting to understand everything in the first paper you read is pretty much impossible. But, (and this is the important part) since you have learned the basics, you know enough to research the more advanced maths, and if you give yourself enough time, you will learn everything you need step by step. Even if there is a maths concept you didn't understand in the first paper, once it arises in a further one you read, you will surely be better prepared to understand it. If you continue on failing and learning, you will master the maths, and then see, that it really is not too scary after all :)
Great video. ML is not about taking a dataset and training random models on it. Every model is different in their own way and the ability to understand the math behind the models helps you determine which model may fit best with your dataset. While these tutorials are great, I’d recommend getting a graduate degree MS/PhD. Most ML positions require a graduate degree, which force you to truly understand the theory
Fantastic video Boris! And excellent practical steps, especially the final one! (Courses = base knowledge, projects/paper replication = specific knowledge)
underrated video, underrated channel . Gonna binge watch all the videos ! so informative and straight to the point, please make more videos on machine learning and artificial intelligence
Great Video , I think book are also as important as course and I would personally recommend the book Hands-on Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and TensorFlow its a great one for connection theoretical ideas and practical workflow
Words are not enough to express my words , i was just too confused to even start even tho i do have prior basic knowledge, as someone coming from software engineering having a basic idea i did had hard time figuring out what to learn , i cant think just how confused how other people are . Thanks a lot 🔥❤
Starting from my point, I think dont rely on GPT too heavily, though it really helps when you're stuck in some problems. Sometimes you have to create your own constrcution of neural networks based on all the basics from python, torch, numpy etc. And your own construction is way more straightforward than the GPT gives. (My experience learning DL for 2 months😜)
That is pretty funny. I am currently studying to apply for TU Berlin kolleg. So that is why I followed you because I think saw one of your videos about a day of your life being a TU Berlin student. And ngl I've never seen another video of you. Untill now, about 1 or 2 year(s) later. And this time I was looking for the roadmap for machine learning. And when I was watching your video. I was so confused that where did I see you. And after a little searching I found out why. So the path I am taking is so similar to yours. That makes me not feeling lonely ❤❤
Thanks for the video. I'm a master's student majoring in electronic information. Your video solved my anxiety and made me no longer worry about whether I was progressing too slow and why I couldn't understand the thesis. So just study hard. I have seen and used all the things you mentioned. That's enough.
I'm beginning my conversion MSc in human centred AI and Game development in September, having no computer science degree or strong foundation in maths. I got a C in GCSE. It's a weak point for me but I can see it's crucial in this field. This is really inspiring and it's good to know that I will be okay as long as I work hard. Thank you!
Fantastic video - as a MSc grad and now a PhD Researcher for Cryptanalysis using ML/DL I totally agree with your selection and more importantly your APPROACH, particuarly in not getting beaten down. I ended up recreated several complex cryptanalysis environments and also adding my own coding to use on 'baremetal' and cloud resources, it was hard work but laid the foundations for the research I am doing now. I shall watch your video again as I really like it not jus for the content, but in how POSITIVE you are, its infectious !!! thanks again, Alze.
Hey Boris, loved the video! I'm starting my AI graduate studies in January and have also contemplated starting a UA-cam Channel explaining the subjects I learn. Just wanted to let you know that you're an inspiration for building a brand for yourself and I'm gonna cheer you on!
thank you so much for this video Boris Meinardus, I was lost in starting the journey of ML but with this video seems like clear roadmap. Every second of this video is informational #gold.
Valuable advices for the begginers! Thank you for sharing! We also see much perspectives in ML engineering. In our last video our colleague who is a Machine Learning Engineer explained his job through an example of the latest AI project he completed at Jelvix. He even shared his work schedule Also quite handy for the begginers
First I learned Linear Algebra on yt with Strang course. It took me half a year. Now I'm on the challenge to comple all Khan Academy HS and college courses. It's already half a year in. I still have lots to do. Then I'll take specialized math for ML course. You'd say it's overkill and I waste time. You probably would be right. Also I forget the most of what I learn. But I just want to tick off all the boxes, so whenever math difficult comes in, I wouldn't be like "oh I have no idea what's going on"
I think you're just doing unnecessarily too much. Just learn enough to get you started. Don't let imposter syndrome win over you. The thing about it is that if you understood some basics you will still revisit the maths and stats as you're working on projects
I was scared that I didn't know enough math after taking linear algebra, but that covers most. I totally agree you can always go back and learn the holes in your knowledge in stead of spending months filling in potential holes.
I graduated and started working at Amazon. I have already taken a year of machine learning, NLP, CV courses and I have built working but not production ready accurate models on object detection, poem writer, and cyberbully detections, and NanoGPT from Andrej. I am really lost in what is the next step. While I have the knowledge, I lack the industrial experience. Because I lack the industrial experience, I cannot work in the related fields of AI. Because I cannot work in the related fields of AI, I lack industrial experience. So this is really been like a chicken and egg problem for me.
I am not sure that basic math such as linear algebra, probabilty in the level of high school, first year of university is enough. I guess some day you will encounter something like of a glass ceiling because advanced ml requires far more advanced math. I am not discouraging the reader to lower his arms, but if you have a choice, it is better to join university where math is taught on above average level. I have a really strong background in pure math, but even with it i sometimes strugge. For e.g. you might need subjects which are really hard to understand such as functional analysis, stochastic processes, descrete math and etc(subjects which is not present in standard engineering math curriculum). But i am working in the research, not on the ml engineer position, so i guess i'm a little bit biased :) But, once again, my advise is to study math as much and as thoroughly as possible. Hope it helps
Happy to know I followed the right order in the first 4 steps! Thank you for recommending Andrej's course; I subscribed to Ng's Course but I couldn't keep up with backpropagation :( Will include this step in my learning journey!
Here's a step-by-step summary of the video 1) Learn Python: Start with Python programming, as it's essential for ML. 2) Mathematics: Focus on linear algebra, calculus, and statistics. 3) Foundations of ML: Study basic ML concepts through online courses (e.g., Coursera, edX). 4) Deep Learning: Learn about neural networks and deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch. 5) Hands-on Projects: Apply knowledge through projects, Kaggle competitions, and open-source contributions. 6) Advanced Topics: Explore advanced ML topics and research papers. 7) Stay Updated: Follow ML trends and continuously learn.
I might be jumping the gun a little, but I feel like in the near future polars is going to be the favorite dataframe tool instead of pandas. I definitely recommend learning it as well, it's a lot more intuitive and faster and a lot of frameworks are adopting it.
Roadmap is super relevant, contemporary, practical and pragmatic. Coined expectations about schedule are just inadequate. Typical yesterday-neophyte's, "second project" misestimation. Basic python+basic numpy+basic pandas from scratch, in "a few weeks"? Seriously? Even in "a few months" it will be a challenging task for most of students.
If starting over in 2024, I’d focus on a structured learning path: begin with foundational courses on platforms like Coursera or edX, dive into hands-on projects and Kaggle competitions, and leverage cutting-edge tools and libraries. Engaging with the latest research and participating in the ML community would also be crucial.
It's an ok list but it lacks one key element: MLOps. If you don't know how to deploy your model nobody will ever use it - as simple as that. Granted - in a very ML mature company (and those are very, very rare) you will have ML engineers who will take care of deployment but you still will need to know how the MLOps lifecycle works and what part you play as ML developer.
I enjoyed Andrew Ng’s ML specialization, but do with it was more hands on. It’s great for learning about the algorithms but you don’t implement much of the projects yourself.
I know Python and I've taken math up to linear alg (aced all finals in math too) I just need to brush up on my Python and I should be able to deep dive into that ML developer stack!
A “Meta professor” is not a standard academic title. However, it might refer to one of the following: 1. Meta as a Topic: A professor whose area of expertise involves “meta” topics, such as meta-cognition, meta-analysis, or meta-ethics, which explore the underlying frameworks or methodologies of a given field. 2. Meta, the Company: A professor affiliated with or collaborating with Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook), particularly in research fields like artificial intelligence, virtual reality, or social media studies. 3. Self-Referential or Philosophical Context: Someone who studies or teaches about the nature of teaching, learning, or academic structures themselves (e.g., “a professor about professors”).
Nice one brother... being in the field i couldnt reccomend anything more. Arch are getting quite irrelavant now with these foundation models but have to get the base straight to start debugging something as base math remains same.
I agree with everything except "everything should take few weeks". Depends how much time you learn a day? 3 hours a day won't let you finish basic course of linear algebra and matrix computations. And there is so much other stuf...
as a programmer whos been at it since the 90s I can tell you.... debug your ML code and have tests for everything. A small bug in the reward function (and many other places) could cost you days in wasted training time! bugs bugs bugs..... fix em.
Never forget about the unavoidable Excel and SQL. You’re end goal might be working strictly with python but you will inevitably have to work with them in some sort of capacity. Working in ML without excel is like running a marathon without headphones or water. Technically possible though rarely ever seen
Thanks 🤗 You can in theory apply to every ML opening you see, but at some level of company the courses alone will not be enough. You will need to demonstrate skills through projects and experience, that‘s why I added the last point in the video :) But there are of course other ways to stand out and I‘ll actually upload a new video covering more tips on exactly that on Sunday. Perhaps that video might be useful to you ☺️
Machine Learning is not easy. I found myself having some pleasant success by taking MIT's 6S191 course on Introduction to Deep Learning. Here are some pre-requirements: Maths: Calculus Algebra Probability Theory Programming: Python The course is teached on site but the teacher recorded all the classes and gave a lot of online resources to everyone.
Highly recommend all the steps in this vid! p.s. if anyone wants a gentle introduction to the math, I'm working on a series called Math You Need For Machine Learning
I am a Cloud Engineer and was thinking of switching to ML/AI. This video was kinda what I was looking for to get an overview of everything and the roadmap and resources to pick! Thanks man! Keep it up. PS: Liking and Subscribing!
Same situation here, currently in Cloud Devops. Now thinking of moving towards AIOps, MlOps with Python programming for future job security and progress.

I was scared that I didn't know enough math after taking linear algebra, but that covers most. I totally agree you can always go back and learn the holes in your knowledge in stead of spending months filling in potential holes.
I graduated and started working at Amazon. I have already taken a year of machine learning, NLP, CV courses and I have built working but not production ready accurate models on object detection, poem writer, and cyberbully detections, and NanoGPT from Andrej. I am really lost in what is the next step.
While I have the knowledge, I lack the industrial experience. Because I lack the industrial experience, I cannot work in the related fields of AI. Because I cannot work in the related fields of AI, I lack industrial experience.
So this is really been like a chicken and egg problem for me.
If u don’t have a ML PhD or working towards it, you do not have the knowledge u think u have
@@andiuptown1711 how do I have the knowledge of ML PHD without being in school?
Really high quality vid with very useful and good structured information! Keep going and you will be big on yt
I really appreciate it!! Thank you very much 💛
Bist ne gute Seele!
Danke für die Motivation.
I am not sure that basic math such as linear algebra, probabilty in the level of high school, first year of university is enough. I guess some day you will encounter something like of a glass ceiling because advanced ml requires far more advanced math. I am not discouraging the reader to lower his arms, but if you have a choice, it is better to join university where math is taught on above average level. I have a really strong background in pure math, but even with it i sometimes strugge. For e.g. you might need subjects which are really hard to understand such as functional analysis, stochastic processes, descrete math and etc(subjects which is not present in standard engineering math curriculum). But i am working in the research, not on the ml engineer position, so i guess i'm a little bit biased :)
But, once again, my advise is to study math as much and as thoroughly as possible. Hope it helps
Everybody is recommending Andrew NG. He must be the best machine learning prof
2:14 I don't remember by calculus class looking like that! :)
Happy to know I followed the right order in the first 4 steps! Thank you for recommending Andrej's course; I subscribed to Ng's Course but I couldn't keep up with backpropagation :( Will include this step in my learning journey!
is that course really free bc the only website i can find is with a 50€ subcrition sry to bother you ;D
bro please keep it up . we need more informative video like this . Thanks alot brother.
Here's a step-by-step summary of the video
1) Learn Python: Start with Python programming, as it's essential for ML.
2) Mathematics: Focus on linear algebra, calculus, and statistics.
3) Foundations of ML: Study basic ML concepts through online courses (e.g., Coursera, edX).
4) Deep Learning: Learn about neural networks and deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch.
5) Hands-on Projects: Apply knowledge through projects, Kaggle competitions, and open-source contributions.
6) Advanced Topics: Explore advanced ML topics and research papers.
7) Stay Updated: Follow ML trends and continuously learn.
I might be jumping the gun a little, but I feel like in the near future polars is going to be the favorite dataframe tool instead of pandas. I definitely recommend learning it as well, it's a lot more intuitive and faster and a lot of frameworks are adopting it.
Thanks a lot for this. I am about to begin my ML journey and this video showed me the way.
I‘m really happy it could give you a little bit of guidance 🤗
Can we start together... By sharing knowledge with each other and helping it could be helpful for both what do you think
@@shani8175 sure
Which year of college you are in?
@@ananyagupta321 last semester :)
have had some non-serious forage into ML earlier but doing it now seriously.
Some of the realest and best advice out there
Roadmap is super relevant, contemporary, practical and pragmatic. Coined expectations about schedule are just inadequate. Typical yesterday-neophyte's, "second project" misestimation. Basic python+basic numpy+basic pandas from scratch, in "a few weeks"? Seriously? Even in "a few months" it will be a challenging task for most of students.
Wonderful upload. Thank you!
Finally a good video on how to actually get started thanks a lot man
This video is the coolest, funniest, most informative video I have ever seen about my major that made me fall in love with it all over again!
Just love the way you say 'Mauths'!:)

thank you for your valuable information 🤩 it really helps me
I‘m really happy I could help you ☺️☺️
If starting over in 2024, I’d focus on a structured learning path: begin with foundational courses on platforms like Coursera or edX, dive into hands-on projects and Kaggle competitions, and leverage cutting-edge tools and libraries. Engaging with the latest research and participating in the ML community would also be crucial.
It's an ok list but it lacks one key element: MLOps. If you don't know how to deploy your model nobody will ever use it - as simple as that. Granted - in a very ML mature company (and those are very, very rare) you will have ML engineers who will take care of deployment but you still will need to know how the MLOps lifecycle works and what part you play as ML developer.
Where can i learn how to deploy ml models?
I enjoyed Andrew Ng’s ML specialization, but do with it was more hands on. It’s great for learning about the algorithms but you don’t implement much of the projects yourself.
You're voice I find easy to listen to and understand. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much sir this video has made me clear on how to learn machine learning🙂
I know Python and I've taken math up to linear alg (aced all finals in math too) I just need to brush up on my Python and I should be able to deep dive into that ML developer stack!
Sounds like a solid plan for my 2024, ty
How's it coming so far?
Mitchel stark is now a software specialist
A “Meta professor” is not a standard academic title. However, it might refer to one of the following:
1. Meta as a Topic: A professor whose area of expertise involves “meta” topics, such as meta-cognition, meta-analysis, or meta-ethics, which explore the underlying frameworks or methodologies of a given field.
2. Meta, the Company: A professor affiliated with or collaborating with Meta Platforms, Inc. (formerly Facebook), particularly in research fields like artificial intelligence, virtual reality, or social media studies.
3. Self-Referential or Philosophical Context: Someone who studies or teaches about the nature of teaching, learning, or academic structures themselves (e.g., “a professor about professors”).
Thanks for the overview and orientation. AI learning is the next thing I want to go into.
Go for it! It is very fun and rewarding. At least in my opinion :)
Nice one brother... being in the field i couldnt reccomend anything more. Arch are getting quite irrelavant now with these foundation models but have to get the base straight to start debugging something as base math remains same.
Very helpful and inspirational video, love from TU!
Thank you!! ☺️💛
This is something I need. Thank you ML Guru!
I wish you had posted this 6 months ago but anyways I can use this video for revision roadmap thanks mate keep it up👏
I agree with everything except "everything should take few weeks". Depends how much time you learn a day? 3 hours a day won't let you finish basic course of linear algebra and matrix computations. And there is so much other stuf...
Stark Brudi, weiter so!
🚀🚀🚀
Big thanks, im off to achieve great things. 🎉
NOTE TO SELF
13/10/24
1) Learn python.
2) Revise Math.
3) Learn jupyter.
4) Learn Pandas, NumbPy and Matplotlib.
ATFTER DOING THIS COME HERE AGAIN
as a programmer whos been at it since the 90s I can tell you.... debug your ML code and have tests for everything. A small bug in the reward function (and many other places) could cost you days in wasted training time! bugs bugs bugs..... fix em.
Thanks man you're great help as always!!
I‘m happy my content can actually help!! 😊
Never forget about the unavoidable Excel and SQL.
You’re end goal might be working strictly with python but you will inevitably have to work with them in some sort of capacity.
Working in ML without excel is like running a marathon without headphones or water. Technically possible though rarely ever seen
Would you do a video with a full practical project using all these tools?
That machine learning course by andrew ng is not free?
Awesome video, I just subscribed!
pure gold, thank you! what kind of roles can I apply after those courses?
Thanks 🤗
You can in theory apply to every ML opening you see, but at some level of company the courses alone will not be enough. You will need to demonstrate skills through projects and experience, that‘s why I added the last point in the video :)
But there are of course other ways to stand out and I‘ll actually upload a new video covering more tips on exactly that on Sunday. Perhaps that video might be useful to you ☺️
Really helpful
keep it going ❤
thanks!!! 😊
Machine Learning is not easy.
I found myself having some pleasant success by taking MIT's 6S191 course on Introduction to Deep Learning.
Here are some pre-requirements:
Maths:
Calculus
Algebra
Probability Theory
Programming:
Python
The course is teached on site but the teacher recorded all the classes and gave a lot of online resources to everyone.
Thank you for such a clear roadmap.
Highly recommend all the steps in this vid!
p.s. if anyone wants a gentle introduction to the math, I'm working on a series called Math You Need For Machine Learning
As a farmer I just bumped into a wrong channel.The boy is speaking in tongues.
I am a Cloud Engineer and was thinking of switching to ML/AI. This video was kinda what I was looking for to get an overview of everything and the roadmap and resources to pick! Thanks man! Keep it up. PS: Liking and Subscribing!
ML is too huge, find out the opportunities where your expertise intersects with ML. Maybe MLOps, or something else!
Same! Planning to work on a MLOps by the end of the year. I find it challenging on how much ML I need for MLOps without becoming ML Engineer
Same situation here, currently in Cloud Devops. Now thinking of moving towards AIOps, MlOps with Python programming for future job security and progress.
thank you, this video is really helpful.🎉
🤗 I‘m really glad it helped you!!
Thanks for this no none sense guide for a complete beginner like myself ❤
Thanks for the explanation !
Thank you so much for the advice and recommendations :D
You're so welcome!
The courses are not free.
Does anyone have alternatives?
Excellent tutorial, starting that course as we speak
brother, hope you gain more. thanks
Your contents are very appreciated.
Thank you! Very helpful!
Thank you for this!
