A complete 4-year course plan for an AI undergraduate degree
This is a well written article and has really good courses and topics in it.<p>Cynically though, I wonder how many people of those who liked it and file it under &quot;I should get to this at some point&quot; actually use it at all. In AI it&#x27;s been a cliche now how many introductory blog posts and into YouTube videos and &quot;how do I start&quot; Reddit and Quora questions there are. The resources and buzz is very high for the first steps. I guess it&#x27;s similar to &quot;how do I make a game&quot; or &quot;hó can I learn to hack&quot; are popular.<p>As I said this one is very solid and has very actionable pointers to great courses. But I find that only a small minority of people are so obsessed that they can pull this huge project on their own. It&#x27;s a multi-year undertaking and even though the resources are freely available, a normal homo sapiens just doesn&#x27;t work like this. For all but the wild outliers (who would find the info anyway, with no Obstacle able to stop them), the context of a university program is really necessary. It gives you time, structure and social motivation, discussing with people in the same boat, helping them out, getting help from them, in person, being forced to chew through the boring bits, not getting satisfied with your own self assessment etc.<p>Otherwise I think this also just gets thrown onto the pile of bookmarks that we all build, to make ourselves feel good about a future day where we somehow magically motivated and sharp to tackle and learn all those things we bookmarked.
