Hello AI community,
I’m passionate about building a career in artificial intelligence, but I’m feeling a bit lost on where to start. I’m looking for advice on:
If anyone here has experience in AI or has gone through a similar learning journey, I’d greatly appreciate your insights and recommendations. I’m eager to learn and would be grateful for any guidance on structuring my learning path.
Thank you in advance for your help!
This is a great question, Mahek. Definitely, platforms like Coursera & Udemy have a wealth of beginner level AI courses that could be a good place to learn on your own. If you would rather prefer to have a mentor to prepare a customized roadmap and help you along, you may want to check out profiles on topmate (search for sanjan_tp_gupta), hito, LinkedIn etc. for people who are open to mentoring.
Hope this helps you and others who are new to the field of AI.
Hey. Hope your learning journey has gone well.
As a corporate professional that wanted to diversify experience. I found it helpful to read a few introductory books and apply the principles directly to work that I had done. I also found similarities between areas at school. If you reflect on subjects you have taken those can be good sources for projects.
Most of the mathematical principles are in economics and data analytics that form part of everyday life.
Reviewing Data Science cheatsheets on programming languages helped me to learn the most important areas first, then I deep dived into other aspects that I thought I would use. Courses on coursera and udemy also helped except I think you will gain best value by applying what you learn as soon as you can otherwise it can feel like expired knowledge after some time. The practice of debugging when things go wrong is sort of what helps reinforce the learning.
Best of luck 
i was also in Mahek’s situation and I can safely say Udemy is also helping me as a beginner
Could you point out some courses on Udemy you found helpful?
Thank You
If you are new to the field of artificial intelligence, consider exploring the DeepLearning platform. They offer free introductory courses, such as "AI for Everyone,"which provide an excellent foundation in understanding AI and machine learning concepts.
Once you have a basic understanding, you can further enhance your knowledge by enrolling in the Machine Learning Specialization course available on Coursera. The DeepLearning platform also provides a wide range of resources, from beginner to advanced levels, making it a valuable tool for learners at any stage.
Hai AI Community!
I have a pretty good idea, maybe you can refute it to become a more brilliant idea.
Emotional AI Companions for Mental Health and Well-Being
In the future, AI could transform mental health care by creating Emotional AI Companions—intelligent systems designed to understand, support, and enhance human emotional well-being. These AI companions would use advanced natural language processing, sentiment analysis, and facial recognition to detect subtle emotional cues, such as changes in tone, body language, or expression.
By analyzing these cues, the AI could offer personalized support, such as calming techniques for stress, mood-boosting activities, or simply being a non-judgmental listener for those who feel isolated. It could also integrate with wearable devices to monitor physical signs like heart rate and sleep patterns, providing holistic recommendations to improve mental and physical health.
For long-term mental health management, these AI systems could act as virtual therapists, helping users track emotional trends, set goals, and practice mindfulness or cognitive behavioral exercises. They could also serve as early-warning systems, alerting healthcare professionals or loved ones if signs of severe distress or mental health deterioration arise.
This innovation could provide affordable, accessible, and stigma-free mental health support, empowering people worldwide to take control of their well-being.
