Python to AI Journey – Need Guidance for Project Building

Hello everyone 👋, I’m seeking advice from experienced devs. I understand the fundamentals of Python (I’ve got them down pat). The challenge is that when I actually work on real-world projects, even though I know how the project should be built (theoretically), I have trouble executing it.

I understand the thought process behind the project and can identify what I need to do, but when I am faced with a specific task, I tend to forget the actual implementation of the task.

I’m trying to transition into AI/ML; however, I’m struggling with the above issues.

Can anyone give me:

Any support, thoughts, guidance or past experiences you can share would be a great help and Share Some Material For Learning.

Thank you.

If you’re truly honest about wanting to improve your skills then do not use AI!

Just write code. Any code! It doesn’t matter. Spend the hours problem solving and debugging and banging your head against the wall. That’s how we all learned and gained experience. But also reach out and seek help about specific problems you can’t solve.

For a project idea, how about a program that uses the Lemmy API to scan resent posts for Python topics. It’s something that can start basic but can be expanded upon. Start simple by just scanning posts from the last day. Then expand by adding a configurable date range, scanning several communities, multiple topics, presenting notifications, etc.
