Diving into the serpentine end

Hello friend.

If you've read my previous post, then you know what I'll be talking about.

(And if you haven't, now is a great time to do so...)

I didn't know when to start that project because I felt like I needed to do more prepping or finish other stuff first.

But this week looks like it's going to be the week for it.

Particularly because I got accepted to an online course which is live. And I need to have some background knowledge about Python (for which I have absolutely none).

So, from this Monday on, you'll see my attempt at going from absolute zero to knowing enough to work on AI projects.

And I don't mean this kind of absolute zero. 🥶

Absolute zero

The challenge

That's going to be from now, Monday 14 all the way to Saturday 19 of August.

It'll be a learn and build kind of thing.

By Sunday I should have something built that I can show. Even if it's something small and not too ambitious.

Also, on that day, I'll be making another post like this with results and lessons learned from the challenge.


That's pretty much it.

I have a list of concepts & topics that I should learn first and a well laid out plan. All it needs now is some execution on my part.

We'll see how it goes.

Thanks for reading so far.

I'll talk to you again on Sunday.

Bye.

Bye
