-
Foundations: AI Literacy & Writing Craft
6 weeksGoals
- Understand core AI/ML concepts, common architectures (LLMs, CNNs, RNNs), and key evaluation metrics.
- Master the principles of clear, concise technical writing and narrative structure.
Resources
- Andrew Ng's 'AI for Everyone' (Coursera)
- Google's 'Machine Learning Crash Course'
- On Writing Well by William Zinsser
- Technical Writing Certification (e.g., Google/Technical Writing One & Two)
MilestoneYou can write a clear, 500-word explanatory blog post about a fundamental ML concept like 'overfitting' for a mixed audience.
-
Core Process: Case Study Methodology & Tools
8 weeksGoals
- Learn the end-to-end case study research and creation methodology.
- Gain proficiency in using prompt engineering and AI tools to assist in content generation and editing.
Resources
- Harvard Business Review case study guidelines
- OpenAI Cookbook (for practical API usage examples)
- Prompt Engineering for ChatGPT (e.g., DeepLearning.AI short course)
- Build a portfolio project: Create a case study for an open-source AI project on GitHub.
MilestoneYou can independently research, interview (simulated), and draft a complete, technically accurate case study for a hypothetical AI startup.
-
Advanced Integration: Business Impact & Specialization
10 weeksGoals
- Develop expertise in translating technical results into business KPIs (ROI, efficiency gain, revenue lift).
- Learn to tailor content for different verticals (e.g., healthcare compliance vs. e-commerce personalization).
- Create a multi-format case study (written + video script + executive one-pager).
Resources
- Courses on Business Intelligence or Data-Driven Decision Making
- Study published case studies from leading AI vendors (OpenAI, AWS, Microsoft Azure)
- Advanced SEO and content marketing courses
- Create 2-3 detailed case studies for different industries for a public portfolio.
MilestoneYou have a professional portfolio showcasing at least three polished, industry-specific AI case studies that demonstrate both technical depth and business acumen.
Practice Projects
Apply your skills with hands-on projects. Ordered by difficulty.
Open-Source AI Project Case Study
BeginnerSelect a well-documented open-source AI project (e.g., a Hugging Face model for sentiment analysis). Research its GitHub repo, documentation, and community discussions to write a complete case study focusing on its development goals, technical approach, and community impact.
Hypothetical Enterprise AI Implementation
IntermediateCreate a detailed case study for a fictional company (e.g., a retail chain) implementing a recommendation engine. Include the business problem, the chosen tech stack (cloud service, ML framework), simulated performance metrics, and lessons learned. Create mock interviews with personas.
AI Case Study Series with Automated Drafting
AdvancedDesign and execute a multi-part case study series for a complex AI system (e.g., autonomous drone navigation). Use a LangChain-based workflow to generate initial draft sections from curated technical specs and notes. Focus on producing consistent, high-quality narratives across the series while maintaining technical rigor.
