I'm a Systems Administrator and I have a fundamental grasp of what it takes to learn about AI. I'm reaching out to other Sysadmins who have delved deeply into AI to share their journeys. What steps did you take, what topics did you focus on learning, and where did you find helpful courses or resources? I want to understand what this journey looks like from a Sysadmin's perspective. Thank you!

One important thing to start with is learning how to integrate AI tools into business processes. Familiarizing yourself with co-pilot technologies can also help you get a better grip on practical applications.
Are you looking to enhance your skills in using AI as a Sysadmin, or is your focus more on organizational implementation? The path can differ significantly based on your goals.
Focus on three main components: model selection, system prompts, and user prompts. Your aim should be to create effective one-shot scripts and prompts that provide the AI with the necessary context without overwhelming it.
I'm really interested in the overall journey. If you were a Sysadmin and transformed into an AI subject matter expert, what did that journey look like for you?
