Course Checkpoint : Ai for Everybody by Andrew Ng on Coursera

Utilising the Enterprise Coursera Premium Subscripition provided by the University and to brush up my Machine learning and other skills required as i build my project X for now will use Couersera content , to understand the dynamics of AI teams in organisations and to gain a broader view of the AI in Industry beyond the DIY and small learning projects we do as students I completed this excellent course taught by Andrew Ng and with the tips and tricks picked from Siraj Raval , like watching the videos at 2x and greater now i can easily watch videos at 2.20x and even greater sometimes and completed the entire course in less than week 

Things taught in course were :

- The meaning behind common AI terminology, including neural networks, machine learning, deep learning, and data science
- What AI realistically can--and cannot--do
- How to spot opportunities to apply AI to problems in your own organization
- What it feels like to build machine learning and data science projects
- How to work with an AI team and build an AI strategy in your company
- How to navigate ethical and societal discussions surrounding AI


As i went through the course i made my E-notes [Screenshot of the slides] so that in case i need to look it up later or use same example to explain the concept to someone else can easily  look back to

My Course Completion Certificate : Coursera Certificate

Next up Python Course + Python for Webscraping and Visualisation for the Project Requirements , then later ML and DL ones , shifted my harshityadav95.blogspot.com to blog.harshityadav.in , will post updates here but will keep complete techincal ones on mediun [but wont post it behind the metered Medium wall,technical posts and learing should be free to all]

Step 2: Be It Computer Science or Machine Learning , Face it

 How to Learn Mathematics Fast

Takeaway :

• Use the Formula Charts and Cheat Sheets
• Gamify the Problem Solving like "Brilliant" and "Variant" or the Game True Learn
• Make your own Curriculum
• Use the ADEPT Method (Analogy, Diagram , Example , Plain English, Technical Definition, Personal Definition for difficult terms)
