Linear Algebra, Probability, Statistics, Calculus, and Optimization. These are the foundations behind building machine learning models.

If you are serious about transitioning to ML, don't start with toy Kaggle projects like millions. Start by building a strong foundation.
On Vizuara's YouTube channel, I have released an entire course on "𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴" where we cover the above topics along with programming fundamentals. If you are a beginner, you can start with this. You will be already ahead of 99.9% of the people.
Here are the lectures I have published so far. More will be published on this playlist: https://lnkd.in/g2K97xHW
