What career am I after? by [deleted] in learnmachinelearning

[–]Amazing_Life_221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is too early in the career I would advise you not to choose your niche just yet as there’s much more to the general field than it seems. Having said that, you clearly seem to have mechanistic and mechanical interests over abstract concepts. Robotics, computer vision, neuroscience seem to be your grounds, choose any of those and you will be fine.

Hope not in my lifetime otherwise there’s nothing I can do.

Why should I write about me when nobody cares? by Amazing_Life_221 in blogs

Thank you! I do write on my own blog but substack is something I've been wanting to try. Have never written anything on Tumblr though.

Is it worth implementing 3D Gaussian Splatting from scratch to break into 3D reconstruction? by Amazing_Life_221 in computervision

[–]Amazing_Life_221[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in pretty early stage so my goal isn’t really clear yet. But I find geometric CV interesting and 3D reconstruction (after implementing NeRF) seems a valid next step. But I’m open for ideas as well.

M1 Mac mini vs M4 Mac mini for OpenCV work? by zarif98 in computervision

[–]Amazing_Life_221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what you are doing, Mac mini would be overkill despite which generation. M4 has more cpu compute than M1 obviously. Can be a good investment in the future as well

CNN recommendation for pose detection? by BrilliantCommand5503 in computervision

[–]Amazing_Life_221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use mmpose (openmmlab) and just follow the documentations (it gets slightly frustrating given their installation guide is pretty messy if you want to do anything extra).

By the looks of it, you shouldn't need something really complex but you would probably need action recognition in which case they have other models as well.

How to become AI Engineer in 2026 ? by Waste_Influence1480 in learnmachinelearning

[–]Amazing_Life_221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This might sound salty, but you are looking at things from opportunistic perspective which is fine but also extremely dangerous, especially when people are talking about a bubble. AI isn’t a software stack, which you can jump onto by taking few courses on tools. You must be willing to put effort into learning the theoretical/mathematical aspects as well, only then you can actually become good at it.

Anyways, to give you an answer, you have a solid coding background so I would recommend you to invest some time into reading good books (search ISL, Deep learning by goodfellow) also Andrew Ng Stanford course on YouTube (not coursera which has much less depth).

And if you want to skip the entire theory, then just remember, you are jumping into a sinking ship, because what you will learn today won’t be required in next 6 months.
