@donesitackacom 5 месяцев назад

If you're able to land SWE gigs, join a company that does AI as a SWE and do a lateral into MLE and eventually research. It's what I did. This is the path with the least friction since junior roles are non-existent. Even then it's extremely competitive. Prior to joining the company as a SWE I already did hobbyist ML research during college for about 2 years. Reading papers, implementing experiments from these papers, building things from scratch to feel how they work, etc... Definitely not for anyone who hates math, and I'm not talking about the kind of math you may need for SWE or the basic linear algebra you may need for graphics programming, if you want to understand these papers it's much more than that.

@MukhilBaskaran 4 месяца назад

Please help me out with this. I'm interested in becoming a machine learning engineer or mlops engineer and I'm a junior in my Bachelors in Computer Science right now, I'm good at Analysing data and creating algorithms like regression,decision tree etc all data science stuff. What you think is the right approach for me? I'm still looking for internships should i apply for swe intern or data science intern?

@donesitackacom 4 месяца назад

@@MukhilBaskaran imo, it's always better to hunt the internship that you actually want. But there's gonna be a time when you just have to get a job/internship and if you don't manage to land any ML related ones just go for a SWE.

@ktlu5102 4 месяца назад

@@MukhilBaskaran Stumbled upon this. Have you taken a look at algorithms that are neural network based and generative AI algorithms? It might help to browse recent ML research papers or white papers from companies working on AI (in a technical way) to have some insights. As for what position to apply for, you might see something like "Software Engineer Internship (20xx) - Machine Learning," "Data Scientist Internship (20xx)," "SWE Internship (multiple tracks available)," "20xx internship - Computer Vision" (yes, there are some positions with specific fields instead of the general AI realm), etc. Still, many companies are reducing their headcounts right now, so you probably won't see many such positions within at least a short period of time. If you do see one, apply as soon as possible as many people are competing for the few still open positions, which makes employers close a position rather sooner. Don't limit yourself, though. Companies sometimes look for ML engineers/data scientists whose expertise are in somehow unusual areas, such as compiler, embedded systems, infrastructure, tools, entertainment, etc. Whatever you do, I hope you're more than a so called "parameter tuner" but have skills or willingness to go beyond that as there have been rather mature ML algorithm that can tune another ML algorithm's parameters... Best wish.

Hey Jean, I’m Jean I’ve been keeping tabs on a your content for some time now and let me just say I’m in love with the information you provide as well as the outlook. I myself have been going from job to job ever since I left high school because I never wanted to go to college or anything like that to try and be successful in life. Little did I know it was going to be an eye opener as to why continued education is important, to cut to the chase I’m 25 now I make a decent living in healthcare but it’s not what I want to be doing for the rest of my life Ai will undoubtedly take over my field at some point. Instead of continuing along this path of going from job to job I feel it’ll be in my best interest to become a software engineer and most definitely for the money. I’m going to be going back to school for the spring semester for the first time ever while working a 9-5 and in the process learning how to code on my free time to try and intern and increase my overall chances of entering the field. I know at some point I’ll need a mentor and I’d be stoked if it could be you. I’m just at the start so I won’t give you some false promises I’ll work on my schooling and learn a few languages then I’ll aggressively make an attempt at trying to reach out in hopes you’ll take me on as a student. Till then best of skill and please keep pushing helpful content, the most helpful content for me right now would definitely where to start this adventure like a sort of roadmap for self learning on how to become a software engineer

@alexandresoaresdasilva1966 4 месяца назад

These tips were all awesome. There's an additional source of stress when working with ML/AI: you're handling probabilistic systems, and tail failure cases are difficult to predict even with a good evaluation pipeline and metrics. This uncertainty can bring a lot of stress when running ML/AI systems. Make sure you understand and accept that your system will fail for weird (or unexplainable) reasons, every now and then.

@KadirPeker 4 месяца назад

Moreover, you'll need to explain this probabilistic aspect to the management and other people; that things may fail or not meet expectations with no fault on your part.

@pacman1187 4 месяца назад

Been doing PhD in medical image analysis using Deep Learning for a few years now. Yes, there is NO SHORTCUT to being good in AI. There’s tons of codes for Deep Learning model implementation, but for the one who’s not graduating from CS or Applied Math, the fundamental stuff for AI will stop you from understanding the core of AI. If you’re good in linear algebra, vector calculus, and Bayes statistics, then that’s a good start for you.

And it's definitely not possible with only a course. it needs at least one year to really learn and understand all of these concepts. At the End as a student you'll find out that it's better first to find a job in any other areas of computer science with maybe less effort and then just learn what you want and shift to another job if you can!

Hey Jean, its really nice of you to provide informative and realistic advice on how to start and how AI and ML engineering work path actually looks like. I was looking for this type of video for a while now when a person with experience actually share what you need to be on the top, like PhD degree. Besides, you show how to actually get there even if you dont have a PhD. I'm a female CS student from an Asian country, so you might have known that the chances for me to actually get there, to the high paid job is not really high like those popular youtube videos often portrayed, like how you only study for 3 months and get a job. I'm in love with the content of videos. And if I can personlly have advice from you, I'm currently doing my Computer Science Bachelor degree, while doing research projects as my major theme in college. I've already published one paper at an international conference, about Machine Learning generalization and privacy theory. I'm wondering if I wanna stop at Master degree and I dont get to do internships so often, are there any chances for me to launch a big job like AI engineer? Love you. And btw your eyebrows *rock* 👑

If you are beginner, you will need to spend 4 hours daily for 3 years at minimum to get your first machine learning job. It's very hard to get job in this space without real world experience. You will need to work on advanced projects to attract employers without years of experience. You might get hired to work with ML engineers but you will not work as ML engineer, maybe something like data analysis or writing SQL etc.

@adambolotov1809 5 месяцев назад

Thank you very much for the previous answer, there is one more question. Maybe it will be useful for someone else too. If I understood correctly, a ml engineer is mostly engaged in applying ml models to projects and then debugging them to achieve the best result. Question - is it possible to do debugging without knowledge of math analysis and other mathematics? To be even more specific, I took a famous course from Andrew Ng and it showed what is under the hood of libraries (all this math that is difficult to understand if you did not study in a higher education institution) is it necessary to know it to debug and in general to work as an ml engineer or just desirable? Thanks in advance for the answer, the chat gpt asked this but there are given vague not direct answers.

@exaltitude 4 месяца назад

If you can't be a AI/ML, it's hard to debug, so you'd need math. If you don't like math, why would you want to work in AI/ML to do something you hate every day? There are plenty of other engineering roles that don't use math at all.

Hey Jean! I want to travel but I'm willing to work hours. I've been programming for years, and I'm studying in college with my major in CS. My goal is to be well off and be able to travel the world, while working. Would this be a job I can do this with? If not, what job?

how do you think it is worth going into the ml sphere if I am interested in using ai for some interesting projects, but I am not very interested in delving into all the nuances of ai work? only the necessary knowledge to launch projects.

Interesting. Job market has changed so much... I am happy to enjoy life with the money already acquired. Unfortunately the AI hype will not last too long as AIs will not need anymore AI engineers to be built. It will generate itself. Interesting to see how we can saw the branch we are sitting on.

Is there a way to talk to you directly? I just finished a course in physics and electronics. But I want to go into tech. I had my eyes on AI, but I saw one of your videos and I'm not quite sure anymore. What are some tech skills I can pick up and get started on immediately from entry level? I don't want to do something that isn't "lucrative". Or rather, something that'd give me a tough time landing my first job. So, I need advice. Please

I've been a NodeJS developer for 6+ years with a decent amount of various AWS services, Docker and generally some of the "devops" stuff. Basically a backend developer by today's standards. Now, I'm kinda searching for the next thing to learn in my spare time. I'm considering: 1) Frontend (though I kinda hate it, even though I'm a JS developer), 2) Golang (already know the basics, but maybe learning some frameworks and stuff), OR 3) Python and trying to get into ML/AI What do you think makes most sense and why?

@exaltitude 4 месяца назад

What do you actually want to learn and why? I wouldn’t force myself to learn something I hate - it’s not productive or competitive long term

@mitlandir5761 4 месяца назад

@@exaltitude I kinda want all three of them. Golang, so I can make super-scalable backend apps; Python and ML/AI because it sounds fun as hell; Frontend, so I can be a full-full-full stack developer and make projects completely on my own. So you see how torn I am right now :D

@exaltitude 4 месяца назад

So you’re not looking for a job and purely for self learning? Then you can learn all three, but it works better if you focus on one at a time. Just choose which one to start with, don't spend too much time deciding; pick one and start learning to get started quickly.

@exaltitude 4 месяца назад

A big problem for the industry is how poorly companies manage mentoring new people. It is really quite interesting how smart everyone is, and yet the companies fail to consider people as systems working together, so the incentives end up essentially pitting people against each other which cuts productivity way down in the long run. Big opportunity for more forward thinking senior engineers and managers.

@matten_zero 5 месяцев назад

I think the best way to get junior experience/pseudo internship is the self-employed freelancer route, esp if you're older and don't have access to networks in the industry. I see it as my informal "internship". Worst case by end of2024 I will have 2 years of experience working with different clients (I have 2 so far) with various recommendations, while I self learn the key skills that are still gaps on my resume (mainly frontend and some ML concepts). Building my network and attending events and hackathons. Personally I think mass applying is time that could have been spent building apps and networking and reading papers. I've found all my clients via networking.

@exaltitude 5 месяцев назад
