Hey there!

This week’s roundup is all about “Career Growth Strategies in AI and Quantum

Tech”:

→ Essential Skills for 2024

→ Navigating Your Career Path

→ Networking in High-Tech Industries

If you’re at the beginning or midpoint of your career in AI or quantum computing, and your goal is to climb the ladder to a more advanced or specialized role, then here are the resources you need to dig into to make that leap:

Weekly Resource List:

1) “Introduction to Quantum Computing” by Edx (A self-paced course) An introductory course that helps you understand the physics and computer science behind this new technology.

2) “8 AI Predictions in 2024” by TechCrunch (20 mins reading) Highlights how AI is going to shape this year.

3) “Mastering Python for AI” by Coursera A self paces course that enhances your coding skills, tailored for AI applications & Data science.

4) “Effective Networking Strategies in Tech” by LinkedIn Learning (3 mins video) Learn how to connect with peers and leaders that can propel your career forward.

Note: It is based on cyber security but the concept can be applied in AI & Quantum computing field.

Favorite Tip Of The Week:

Lastly, here’s my favorite tip about career growth in AI and quantum tech of the week. It’s from “Navigating AI Ethics” by Dav balroop(CEO of TechUnity), and this completely changed the way I thought about responsible innovation.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

Step 1: Identify and mitigate biases in AI by improving how they are designed and monitored, ensuring fairness across all user interactions.

Step 2: Implement transparent data practices and enhance privacy, explaining clearly how AI systems make decisions to build user trust and compliance.

Step 3: Develop ethical governance frameworks that ensure AI accountability and address the broader social and economic impacts of AI technology.

Hope this helps!
