Scenario: Learn AI (roadmaps, tutorials) →
Symptoms
- There are too many tutorials to know where to begin
- You learn concepts but have nowhere to practise
Common causes
- Learning is scattered without a plan tied to a goal
How to fix
- Pick a learning path in our AI Learning Center (beginner / developer / researcher) and follow the modules in order
- Pair each stage with courses from the matching category in our curated external tutorial list; most are free
- Get hands-on early: run a small model locally with Ollama, LM Studio or Jan and experiment as you learn
- If you build apps, practise with the software in the “Connect tools to agents” and “RAG” scenario pages after learning RAG and tool calling
- Use the Free models section to find free API credit for practice
