The world of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is constantly evolving. Upskilling in this area can help you advance in your career. Read further to learn about Deepak’s journey with Great Learning’s PGP Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Course in his own words.
I am Deepak, an ardent learner and a Mechanical Engineer by degree, Data Scientist by profession.
A brother of mine introduced me to Great Learning. That was how I became aware of this program. Before my PGP program, I was actually clueless as to where my life was headed. I was not very happy to have been part of my engineering degree. I had no idea about programming or even the basic concepts related to AI/ML before my PGP program. It gave me the want to learn more and more about this field to keep me on par with my peers. I still am learning and will continue to do so all my life.
I have been able to apply what I have learned from this program to my work. My current workplace deals with some of the features of OCR. Image classifier concepts that I learned from my PGP course stood as a huge reference point. Almost all the models that we create require data gathering and cleaning, and to do that to its fullest, I need to analyze and understand the type of data I have in hand. Every time, we derive various kinds of analytics. So far, these analytics have helped us to produce more accurate and trustworthy decision-making models.
I keep learning new things every day at work. This, in turn, helps me do the work I do much faster compared to my pace at the initial stages. Considering this fact, I am still at very early stages in my career. My team does recognize me and treats me as a valuable asset.
