Week 8 - MBA 6101 - Surfing the Tsunami

This week, the lesson is how to keep you motivated and your journey sustainable by continuously and incessantly adapting and adopting. Do not assume that the original process of adapting and adopting is enough. In this fast-changing environment of AI, things can change really quick. So it is a good idea to take an AI class and/or read more books either physically, electronically or the way it works for you. The objective is you become more adept. 

Some of the suggested titles by Todd Kelsey are the following: To start, Rise of the Robots, 2nd Machine Age, and/or Machine Platform Crowd are good to understand the importance and the impact of AI. To move forward and become more adept, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Master Algorithm. Some of the information in these books may not be understood first so easily so read them over and over as you take more classes on AI. 

Also, consider obtaining education and/or certificates. They can be obtained in traditional classes or online. Coursera, for example, offers courses and specializations with auditing for free. If you have taken this more seriously, you can get a Master's degree via Coursera too. Another example is Udacity. Here you can take classes and obtain a Master's degree too. Now that you have what you need to adapt, adopt, and become adept, let's surf the AI tsunami!
