DLI - Deep Learning Institute
From finding the best sushi near you to improving the manufacturing process of industrial components to making the car you drive safer, AI is advancing convenience, productivity and reliability across industries.
But taking advantage of the power of AI is not feasible without a skilled workforce. In fact, industry research indicates that lack of AI skills is the primary reason companies are unable to achieve business value with AI - from source
The NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI) was established in 2016 to bridge exactly this gap in AI education. Since then, over 183,000 students have benefited from its hands-on courses, covering both fundamental and advanced AI topics. The only mission is to equip developers, data scientists, and students with critical skills in applying artificial intelligence... no need to say, using NVIDIA solutions 😅
What kind of Courses and training can we get?
The NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI) offers a range of educational and training solutions to address diverse learning needs. Here’s what you can find there:
Learning Paths: Explore courses and workshops covering AI, accelerated computing, data science, graphics, and more.
Self-Paced Online Courses: Learn at your own pace, anytime, anywhere, with just a computer and an internet connection.
Live, Virtual Workshops: Join instructor-led sessions to gain practical experience powered by GPUs in the cloud.
Educator Programs: Resources for teachers and educators to enhance their knowledge and teaching skills.
Whether you’re an individual looking to upskill or an organization seeking workforce development, the DLI has you covered! 🚀
Another amazing and unique training formula are the Onsite workshops. NVIDIA designed the most effective ways to train teams of developers and data scientists at their workplace!
DLI has delivered instructor-led workshops on-site at organizations as diverse as Adobe, Baker Hughes, Booz Allen Hamilton, Cisco, Groupe PSA, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Not all the courses are FREE
Well, this was expected. Primarily NVIDIA targets Companies and Institutions, providing a FULL Solution from the ground up.
Because of the lack of AI skills, companies and government agencies around the world are swarming the job market to hire developers, data scientists, engineers and researchers with AI expertise. But there just aren’t enough AI-trained developers to meet the demand.
For example, if you are interested on Only FREE courses about Generative AI here is the list
The Courses have engaging video itroductions and explanations. They come with links to Google Colab Notebooks to test and practice what you have learned and also with dedicated NVIDIA powered coding environment.
Your Drive is everything
I am almost 50 years old, and I couldn’t even imagine the times we are living. The resources and possibilities to learn are on a completely different level, compared to the ones when I started to program (35 years ago… )
But the truth is simple: the only thing required to learn is your curiosity and your ambition.
Ambition refers to someone’s personal hopes for themselves…. but it only represents a desire to improve, tenacity and hope for the future.
So if you have this drive… what are you waiting for?
The future of AI is agents oriented. And here the gift for you of this week: my free article on Medium about how to run your free local AI Agents with llama-cpp-python.
This is only the start!
