AI Learning Guide

Pick one or more AI specialty areas. For everything you check, you'll see companies known to hire for it, free courses to learn it, the hardware it actually takes to practice hands-on, and free/paid ways to get that hardware without buying it outright.

Snapshot from August 2026 — not live, not auto-updating. Every company, course, and price below was researched and verified at a point in time (each item shows its own "as of" date). Job markets, free-tier terms, and hardware prices change — treat this as a well-researched starting point, not a live feed, and re-verify anything time-sensitive before acting on it.

Step 1

Choose your specialties

Select as many as you're curious about — everything below unions across your selection, with shared companies/courses/tools shown once.

0 specialties selected Audit research data

Select at least one specialty above to see companies, courses, hardware, and where to get it.

Step 2

Classes to take — and what each one actually needs

One block per specialty, listing its classes. Hardware requirements vary class by class even within the same specialty (a pure-reading course needs nothing; a hands-on notebook needs a GPU) — so each class shows its own hardware tier, the free/cheap way to get it, and where to buy in if you want to go beyond free.

Step 3
