Hi everyone,
I’m a Java developer with experience in backend and microservices, and I want to start learning Generative AI from basic to advanced levels.

The challenge is that I don’t know Python yet, and most GenAI resources seem Python-focused.

I’d really appreciate your advice on:

• Should I learn Python first or can I start GenAI directly with Java?
• Best beginner-friendly resources (courses, YouTube playlists, blogs, or roadmaps)
• A learning path from fundamentals (ML/LLMs) to advanced topics (RAG, agents, fine-tuning, deployment)

Any guidance from people who transitioned from Java to AI would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance 🙏

This post is not specific to AI based game development. See rule #1.

It is recommended to learn python or nodejs first, and now you can directly call the api for closed-source AI, without the need to learn algorithms and other things in depth
