This program was exceptionally good This program was exceptionally good. I went from very little understanding of the latest in machine learning and AI, to a very thorough understanding in two weeks. Marcus is the best instructor I have ever learned from. I would take any class that he architects on literally any subject. So well thought out and organized. Would recommend to anyone.

The ML Bootcamp I was looking for I learned practical skills that allow me to jumpstart a ML career. After this course I'm able to have conversations with Data Scientists and am confidently working on a side project with my peers.

Just the catch-up I needed I attended Deep Atlas because I felt like the software industry has started to go in a new direction, and I'd noticed conversations about ML and AI happening at work that I wasn't able to keep up with. Coming away from the class after two weeks, I felt ready to engage with a whole range of ML and AI topics. The class delivered on its promises for me, and I feel capable of both practical ML engineering and fighting my way through AI white-papers (e.g. "Attention Is All You Need") to learn more. Hugging Face now feels more like a useful library of tools than a pile of enigmatic repos! Deep Atlas was a big fast-forward for my learning. I might have eventually gotten there on my own, but it's hard to say how long (and how much effort) that might have taken. Learning everything in a condensed period was effective and honestly quite fun!

Get on the ML Rocket Ship If becoming an ML engineer is landing on the moon, Deep Atlas is the rocket ship that breaks you through the earth's atmosphere. The 2 weeks are a radical SHORTCUT to your learning journey. This gets you up to speed in the most engaging, powerful way. I came in with 0 ML knowledge, and I'm already working on ML projects at work and building ML side projects!

Deep Atlas: A Focused Journey Through AI/ML Learning Having worked as a software engineer for the past decade, I was excited by the new possibilities that the recent developments in AI have opened up. My experience at Deep Atlas has profoundly leveled up my knowledge and skillset to capitalize on these opportunities. The curriculum at Deep Atlas is efficient and effective. There’s so much educational content on the internet that it’s hard to map out a path on one’s own. It’s easy to get lost in the weeds of basic theory (e.g. linear algebra) and overwhelmed by the complexity of advanced concepts (e.g. transformers). I needed a system to take me from A to Z. The Deep Atlas curriculum trimmed the fat and delivered the highest density of educational nutrients. In order to achieve its goals, the program ran at a fast pace. We were given lectures on theory and many hands-on exercises to apply our learning. We covered so much in a relatively short period of time. Had it not been for the structured schedule, it would’ve been very easy to get sidetracked. Taking on an endeavor such as this would have been really difficult without community. I found my peers at Deep Atlas to be intelligent, passionate, and supportive. The culture was collaborative and encouraging, which greatly enhanced my learning experience. It was inspiring to be a part of a group that had technical depth. I enjoyed the wide breadth of industry experience we brought in. At the end of the program, we had a two-day capstone group project. I was so impressed by everyone’s projects. Our team built a classification model to determine whether a body of text (narrative) contained any cognitive distortions. We learned so much from the experience. Looking back, it’s pretty incredible that we gained the knowledge and skills to do that in less than two weeks. I couldn’t imagine doing this without Deep Atlas. And this is just the beginning. There’s so much more to learn, especially given the pace of new developments in this field. After Deep Atlas, I now have a map of the AI/ML terrain. I’m able to navigate my own career path through it and integrate new discoveries along the way. The tools I’ve gained allow me to solve so many more problems, and I’m excited for that!
