Just the catch-up I needed
I attended Deep Atlas because I felt like the software industry has started to go in a new direction, and I'd noticed conversations about ML and AI happening at work that I wasn't able to keep up with. Coming away from the class after two weeks, I felt ready to engage with a whole range of ML and AI topics. The class delivered on its promises for me, and I feel capable of both practical ML engineering and fighting my way through AI white-papers (e.g. "Attention Is All You Need") to learn more. Hugging Face now feels more like a useful library of tools than a pile of enigmatic repos! Deep Atlas was a big fast-forward for my learning. I might have eventually gotten there on my own, but it's hard to say how long (and how much effort) that might have taken. Learning everything in a condensed period was effective and honestly quite fun!
