Unlocking the future: Machine learning skills & learning routes 

Machine learning engineers structure the learning environment for machines using a programming language, primarily Python in this domain. Understanding Python’s syntax, particularly in the context of Artificial Intelligence, is essential for ML engineers.

A suggested course for this is Cs50’s Introduction to Programming with Python on Edx The next step involves focusing on grasping the basics of machine learning, particularly topics such as supervised machine learning (Regression and Classification), advanced learning algorithms like Gradient descent, and unsupervised machine learning (Recommender systems, Clustering, and Reinforcement learning).
