Harsh Reality of AI Jobs No one Tells You|

In this video I talk about the reality of Artificial Intelligence jobs. Specifically I discuss:
1. Reality of getting Machine Learning/AI Jobs at top product companies like Google, Facebook as a fresher.
2. Setting realistic deadlines and timelines to get a job in this field.
3. Salary and package Expectations as a fresher for machine learning/deep learning engineer roles.

Well said.....very few people put this reality out there. Thank you

[@ryostyles9904]

Thank you so much for these honest words of advice. Most people only talk about how there's a lot of scope as if everything is going to be great and magical, but reality is, that doesn't happen to most people.

[@bujin5455]

Honestly, one to two years to learn a serious skill set seems pretty fast to me. Once I decided to take learning programming seriously, it took three years of multiple hours of study a day for me to get to the point where I felt I could build non-trivial projects.

[@ln2deep]

I've got about 10 years of experience now and I do have a decent job. Having said that, I still wouldn't say I feel like I have all the skills I need and I have to learn new things and remind myself of previous things I've learned regularly. Studying never stops. What I'd say about the value of a student fresh out of their Bachelor's is that, if they are trained to know relevant aspects of ML in a decent degree, they might be quite useful so long as they were taught relevant modern practices. Infact, some practitioners have quite out-dated knowledge and aren't willing to change much. However, the knowledge of a Bachelor's student would be very brittle. They wouldn't be comfortable dealing with unclear and poorly defined problems, which is what most problems are. When you encounter such problems, you need a lot of experience and ways to make progress despite there being nothing to read or examples to follow to move forward. When we take on interns or students doing their Master's thesis we expect them to need a lot of help and to have very clearly defined problems. The ability for students to work independently varies dramatically though and it is partly just an inherent trait some people have and others lack regardless of their technical skills. Moreover, a Bachelor's student would discover that their uni had just one take on what was important and they would encounter different ideas and perspectives very different to their own out in the wild. They'll discover that they didn't really master anything during their studies and they just had a very brittle first snapshot of their field and they should expect to keep learning for the rest of their lives. One good thing about them is that they tend to work hard and want to impress. Older practioners don't care about impressing anyone anymore and care more about work-life balance.

An addition I believe is also important is... if you want a good job with AI, do something useful in a personal project, publish and you will be find! Not the opposite! This is another approach you can take! Because everywhere there is someone looking for performance, not knowledge!! Because of that, diplomas don't have much value! And when you think about deep mind or something related, prepare your PHD or a very good participation in a project! They are looking for results, not theory! A good theory results in good results! ;)

That's true, I'm currently a final year student in the field of AI & ML. As our placements have started I hardly see any AI companies come to our college. Even if they come, they want us to have huge knowledge in this domain. (Considering ML, DL, MATHEMATICS, CV etc). Neither I'm an expert in AI nor I have knowledge about CS subjects, I can't even place in a single company!!. Coming to resources: AI subjects have far less resources compared to CS subjects. So you have put in lot of efforts to gain knowledge as well!! That's why I have made a decision to drop AI, and concentrate on CS subjects. (For a software engineer role) Just started to learn java,OPPS, HTML, Networks, OS. I'm hoping to see some good results in future.
