AI Intuition
This is the gold rush era of artificial intelligence. You want to learn quickly so you don't get left behind, but how can you learn about AI without an advanced degree in computer science and mathematics? You translate all the complicated concepts into plain language and you summarize the relevant news into a podcast you can listen to while you do everything else. This is the method that helped me speed up my learning and maybe it can help you too.
