Why This Is Important
The AI revolution is creating unprecedented opportunities, but there's a critical gap between theory and practical building skills.
Most courses teach AI concepts but not how to build real applications
Entry-level GenAI roles require portfolio projects, not just certifications
The field is evolving so rapidly that traditional education can't keep pace
Companies need people who can build and deploy AI solutions immediately
Learning by building is the fastest way to develop job-ready skills
"83% of companies are adopting GenAI, but 76% report difficulty finding talent who can actually build with these technologies."
