This is Jen Jaw, batch 21 apprentice in her deep skinning phase. She thought joining the AI apprenticeship program would be a breeze. >> Maybe more like a gas of wind. >> AAP is an exciting opportunity to stretch and grow. So, she's got to roll up her sleeves and take on the challenge. A batch 20 apprentice swings by. Someone who was once in her shoes is now a senior sharing advice. Oh, that makes sense. >> By 11:00 a. m. , she's in the project pitch workshop where project mentors share about the available real world projects. >> Hope I get a project I choose. >> Good luck. Lunch at 12. The 1 hour nobody talks about work. Or do they? >> No, we didn't talk about work. >> Of course, they still did. Back at the office, Gandro is realizing that deep skilling doesn't come with a manual.
Lucky for her, AI engineers are in the room to support her journey. >> Sure, it's hard, but with the right support, I think I can do this. >> And honestly, we think so, too. >> Come join AAP and launch your career in AI.
