6 Techniques That Help Me Study Machine Learning Five Days Per Week

In 2017, I started my own AI Master's Degree to learn machine learning by combining different resources. Studying online and on your own is hard. So I figured out ways to help. I now use these techniques to learn anything I want, machine learning included.

Note to self - revisit this video every week till you internalize it. Very powerful Dan, thank you!

I'm 41 and in the middle of changing careers... You're an inspiration to me Daniel. You are wise beyond your years and you're pushing me to study smart and hard in order to give my family a better future. Thank you for everything you do.

Learning is a journey, and the investment mostly is TIME. Good, realistic reminders on this vid. Thanks for sharing.

Words of wisdom.
Organized persons share the same experience and methodology most of the time, but never get enough listening and watching a new one.
best of luck Daniel and keep it on...

It gave me peace when you said that it is frequent to forget things you've read. I did the course Learning how to learn and believe me, I've followed the techniques they teach in there (and certainly they work, but not absolutely. Or at least for me). But the magic happens at the intersection of other realms of knowledge :).

Powerful story, would make a great book!

[tituspowell]

Incredibly inspiring and relevant. I'm also changing career and going through a year of intensive self-study of machine learning - my own AI Master's degree. Your PyTorch 'in a day' course was the breakthrough that finally meant I felt I was starting to understand deep learning. You're a fantastic teacher and inspiration. Thanks Daniel!

Learning how to learn is the one course everyone should take. Life changing.

I am majoring in chemical engineering and now stepping into learn machine learning. Thank you for the video..!!!!

[gero]

I Gonna tell you. I am finally breaking in on the field and your channel was my number one motivational fuel. Thanks!

[IvanGoncharovAI]

Such an immersive video. Wow! The fact that there's no background music and it's just narration + beautiful B-roll, really love the production on this one.

This video says what I am exactly repeating over and over to my sisters, this is the teaching I drew from my preparatory classes and my first year of master in engineering while I was struggling to be the best I could in math and programming while remaining at home and commuting for hours every day, it was hard but the richest experience I had. It seems that you lived exactly the same... but even worse... Seeing the bright side, you made it a fantastic video and a wonderful ytb channel too, cheers from France

Love it Daniel, been watching for 3 years now since college and you still inspire me to learn more. Love seeing you grow and improve. Hope you continue to do well and reach your dreams dude! ✌️❤️💪

[Moiez]

holy fucking smokes dude. You are such an inspiration. I studied philosophy and geography at uni, never imagined i'd be doing freaking data science and machine learning. I also studied nutrition coaching, and exercise science but only use what I learned to help people. I love the way you approach life as in you are involved in doing so many things. And your drive is insane. Let's get it!

"You can't always control whether you make progress with study; but you can control how much time you spent on something" - A quote worth putting on the wall.

I started my journey following your DS roadmap. Will start with NumPy this week. Thank you so much. The video is amazing

[Janamejaya.Channegowda]

Best video in a very long time, this and your arxiv channel are simply brilliant. Keep up the great work.

[bahadiryazici]

I am very grateful that we have you who guide us, thank you daniel.

[emiliofajardo]

My guy, this video transcends tips to learn machine leaning. Remarkable !

[programming_and_snacks]

Hey Daniel, I’ve been a long subscriber of your channel. My name is Sid. Even though I’m not curious and interested in pursuing a path in ML anymore, I just want to say that I still watch your videos and there’s still a ton I can learn from you. Keep up the good work man :)
