 Introduction

Embrace the Change

"AI will add 2.3 million
jobs by 2020"
 Gartner

Whether we are aware or not, every aspect of

our life is touched by AI/ML applications like
Shopping Assistants, Spam Filters, Home
Automation, Chat Bots, Self Driving Cars, Surgical
Bots, Robo Advisors, Algorithmic Trading, Robotic
Process Automation, Speech Recognition,
Real-time Language Translation, Computer Vision,
Data Mining, and a whole lot more.

Tech giants are rapidly migrating to an AI-first

World. The industry is getting disrupted. It is
undeniable where tomorrow’s jobs are going to
be.

Upgrading your expertise in AI/ML is the best way

to sustain your career growth and professional
stability. In the words of famous Jack Trout, it is
time to ‘differentiate or die’.
