Machine Learning - Self learning tips

Can someone please suggest good options to learn ML/AI on my own - more interested in practical applications than theoretical knowledge. Visual / speech recognition / robotics are my primary interest areas. To me, the Deep Learning specialization on Coursera looks good. Any other good alternatives, specially given above interests ?

Check out deep reinforcement learning nanodegree on Udacity. It focuses on gaming and robotics

Thanks , looks interesting. Though not sure if I can pace it at my own speed and start right now. Udacity mentions that the next course starts on August 28th only. Also this course is much more expensive than the Coursera course

Fast.ai to get you up and running, Andrew Ng's ML course to get a basic overview, and deep learning.ai to get in depth

Thanks! Fast.ai looks good - I would likely start with that and Deep Learning AI course. Isn't the deeplearning.ai course a superset of Andrew NG's ML course ? Would I need the latter to get the fundamentals right before jumping into deeplearning.ai course ?

I thought it was the machine that is supposed to learn !

Unfortunately today machine learning has become the same as deep learning
