One of my goals for the near future
12 Jan 2026
It seems funny to talk about the future in a memory! I can say that this is remembering something I'd have liked to do last year but never made the time.
Now that I am not full time working on a team, I find it hard to learn new skills. The big one now is everything AI related. I've done lots of reading and workshops the past few years to try to keep up, but nothing matches using something in real life. Also, I am not a good solo learner. Throughout my career, I've worked on teams where I could pair or ensemble with others to try out new practices.
So my short term goal is to investigate all the AI-related learning opportunities here in the MoTaverse and start taking the courses and lessons!
