Exploring what's next for you in AI

You've come such a long way! Let's take a last step back and see what knowledge you've gained and what skills you've acquired:

  • You have a solid intuition of Reinforcement Learning.
  • You can use it to solve real-world problems.
  • You can program in a way that sets you apart and puts you at the cutting edge of AI.
  • You can write systems that learn and improve over time.
  • You have the solid basics that allow you to go further in AI.

Speaking of going further, the question is: how? How will you apply what you've learned? What will you do next? First of all, your next step is:

Practice, practice, and practice

There are many ways to practice your AI skills. You can enter AI competitions like the ones on Kaggle, which contain problems that can be solved with deep reinforcement learning. You could build some new AIs like the one we created for the self-driving car. For example, you...
