How to start learning AI?

You don't need to learn everything about AI.
You just need to learn the right things in the right order.
Here’s the roadmap I’d follow if I were starting today:

1. 🐍 Python
   Learn the basics. Don't spend 6 months mastering it.

2. 🧠 Machine Learning
   Understand how models learn, train, and make predictions.

3. 🔥 Deep Learning
   Neural networks → Transformers → LLMs.

4. 🤖 Build with AI
   APIs, RAG, AI agents, tool calling, evaluation.

5. 🚀 Ship projects
   This is where the real learning happens.

The biggest mistake?
Spending 100 hours watching tutorials and 0 hours building.

Start small.
Build something.
Break it.
Fix it.
Repeat.

That's how you actually learn AI.
