How do I learn this shit? The materials I've found so far are just terrible.

You're looking at the wrong courses. There are some decent ones out there if you look a bit harder.

Someone didn't realise that AI and neural networks are all glorified statistics manipulation. They work using patterns and predictions based on data, nothing more.

Well, no shit. Thanks for clearing this up for us. Great contribution, Einstein.

Which computer vision course are you talking about? There was one on coursera but they removed it.

thanks!

Try Geoffrey Hinton's neural networks course.

this is awesome, really enjoying this lesson

theano and tensorflow are trash, but still the best libraries/tools out there
maybe have a look at keras/caffe as well and youtube everything you dont understand
most important thing is you do the learning in Python or you are fucking retarded

Also worth mentioning are Graphlab Create, Chainer, and Neon.
There are a bunch of framework specific courses and tutorials out there as well and you may want to look around that "awesome list" on github.
>>8122724
Could you link to the awesome list on GitHub?
>>8122786
There are lots of them. There's even lists of lists and lists of lists of lists and so on (the github community is quirky like that).
They're basically a big collection of resources and projects sorted by topic/programming language/framework/etc..

Read a Modern Approach. MIT also has their lectures online.

Am I stupid for thinking this sounds fun?

>online courses make you sit through weeks worth of lectures on linear regression
ummm can't you skip lectures?
> coursera
I know there's higher level AI courses then what you looked at.
You must have taken something like Statistics for AI

that was awesome anon!! I don´t have the words to descrive how thankful i am
