Ask HN: How should I, an SRE, prepare to conquer AI?

I am 38, a Linux Admin and SRE. Have a nice job which allows me to keep learning new things. And in my job, over the past few months have been using AI to help me Code (write and parse) and learn complicated topics by making AI explain stuff in a very simplified manner.

I understand using to Code is one application and I am doing that. I also use AI in my linux-administration tasks. But like in Machine-Learning people learn math and python-coding, what should I learn for AI to always try to be ahead of the curve.

I know that I should learn how to make good prompts, which will be a never ending thing, but am Okay with that cause I myself like simplifying things. Should I learn lot of deep Math to go deep into LLMs? I am totally lost here. Should I be, and I donno whether I will be able to, read some particular AI-related code base, like for example, LangChain libraries?

Please help me out here.
