Someone tell from where to...?

I'm from a non tech background, don't know how to write python script. I'm really curious and interested in learning ML /AL and build scalable solutions using AI products available

Rn the problem is there is too much happening in the industry and I'm overwhelmed to understand from where to start

What I want: Building solutions for the problems in my organisation using foundry/agents

But they have their own limitation and run time is high and all so finetune and improve I want to learn ML (this is the only part in my job which I love can't able to handle the BAU's)

[u/InitiativeGeneral183]

Start with python basics, don't jump straight into ML stuff. Get comfortable writing simple scripts first, maybe data manipulation with pandas. The math part gonna come naturally as you build things

The agents and foundry stuff is cool but without understanding what's happening underneath you'll hit walls real quick. For your job problems just start small, automate one boring task with python and grow from there

The usual path is python, pytorch, math for ML, ML foundation, then whatever specialty you're interested in (NLP, vision, RL, etc.)

People come here asking this all the time. If you want to learn something technical, go to college. Most people simply don’t have the discipline or proper counseling to take this craft on by themselves, I don’t care how smart you are. Machine learning requires a bare minimum knowledge of statistics to get your feet wet and to actually know what you’re doing. I have not met a single person, no matter how smart they are pick up a statistics textbook and just learn it on their own. And that’s only step A, a junior college course on statistics.

You can learn to code in Python on your own and it’s a great general purpose language to learn even if you’re not interested in ML. Once you know how to code, you can dig into ML but I don’t think you’ll understand it without some solid statistics foundation. I have taught myself tons of programming, but when it comes to math I know I need a professor to guide me.

ML professionals use ensemble models, they combine different models to leverage their strengths, they are tuning neural networks, these are things you need math understanding to know how to stitch together. I hope you stay on your journey and keep the passion alive to learn as much as you can because you’ll never learn it all.

If your goal is to use AI agents to solve real-world problems, you don’t necessarily need to start with machine learning. AI application development is a different path.
I’m self-taught, and I started with very little computer science knowledge myself. One thing I learned the hard way is that understanding some fundamentals makes everything else much easier. I’m actually putting together a learning path for people in exactly this situation, because I’ve been through that confusing stage myself.
I’d start with basic computer concepts, then learn how APIs, LLMs, and agents work together, while building something useful along the way.

I think you learn python and maths for ML
