Are You Too Old or Inexperienced To Up-Skill Into Applying AI?


 

This week's tip: Learning a new skill (AI ) will benefit your career no matter where you stand right now.



We all know someone who's been contemplating a professional knowledge shift.


Maybe it's you.


A friend in software development recently told me he'd switch to AI development if he were 20 again.


Another, is making a bold career move simply because "life is short."



My Own Experience with Shifts

It's a topic I can talk about with some authority.


I remember when I first switched lanes in my career, leaving a product design career to dive into startup founding.


Then another switch into innovation management. This were massive adjustments, but they paid off. Is AI going to be the next one? I sincerely don't know.



Why Age and Experience is Not Important

So, why should you consider investing the time into learning AI, regardless of your age or background? Here are some quick points:


1. AI is Just Getting Started:

Think about tech in the 2000s. If you thought it was "too late" then, you were wrong. Right now, the growth rate of AI is higher than the tech was then.


2. Accelerated Learning Paths:

Online education makes it possible to learn AI essentials within months, not years.


3. Different Avenues:

You don't have to be a machine learning researcher to contribute. Take your expertise and leverage it with AI - there you have one possible path.



The AI field has a multitude of entry points

It's an accessible for people of all backgrounds and ages. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a newcomer, learning a new skill will benefit your career.
