What are some good courses or playlists for learning machine learning?

Before choosing a course, make sure you’re comfortable with general programming. If you’re interested in the theory behind languages and computation, an introductory Standard ML programming text can also be useful, though it isn’t a direct machine-learning course.

There are several good free options to compare, including DeepLearning.AI, JoinAI, DataInterview, Stanford’s machine-learning materials, and fast.ai. A practical path would be to start with a beginner course, then use fast.ai or TensorFlow tutorials for hands-on projects.

The best starting point depends on what you already know. If you have some Python experience, the official TensorFlow tutorials are a practical way to begin building models and learning the basic workflow.
