I do systems software engineering. What should I learn in order to become an ML engineer?

Here's how I got started: https://blog.gregbrockman.com/how-i-became-a-machine-learnin...

There are many courses available these days; I recommend picking a simple project to start (for me, it was trying to make inference work for GPT-1), learn what you need to in order to get started, and iterate from there.

Thanks Greg. That post you just linked is super encouraging — I’ve been meaning to “do something with ML” for the longest time but couldn’t figure out where to start. P.S. Huge fan of what you guys are doing at OpenAI. Thank you for doing it.
