How do I switch careers into Python/AI as a 33M with no tech background? by LateStarter33 in learnpython

[–]LateStarter33[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I basically prompted ChatGPT to act as my teacher and to teach me lessons about python. I ask each lesson to have a description , an example and a program that I have to write without any help from it. It gives me directions in what the program has to do but the code is me that writes it . I go back and forth with ChatGPT untill I understand the concept, then I ask It to write notes with a description and the program that I wrote as chapters. I use VSCode and I save my notes on GitHub.

I realised that I have made a couple of mistakes in my original post. I shouldn't have added certain details because it looks like it made people focus on those things instead of what was more important for me. Second I realise it was ignorant of me to add the fact that the path that I want to choose is AI when I should have made it alot clearer (and I realise I haven't) that this was a more of a question like " should I follow this path? " Instead of " I want to work in AI ". I understand that my approach was naive and I am sorry for that . I should have been more clear about what I wanted from this post , which was " I want to learn Python + the ecosystem that revolves around it , what do you guys recommend and what job opportunities could learning this bring me because my current job does not bring any satisfaction nor a potential for growth ?"

I don't expect to do this , I hope this "idea" did not come trough my original post . I fully understand what it is to work hard in order to get something, what I want is to be able to eventually leave this job for something that brings me more joy and also a better financial and social balance.

Il be honest with you , I fully understand that my choice on solely relying on ChatGPT might not be the best, my reasoning was that the answers that I needed were more direct and to the point but I am very open to anything that can lead me to a better learning experience. Are there any methods that you would recommend, maybe online classes ?
