Hey, I signed up just to reply! If you want to begin to understand the stuff for fun I recommend the Udacity cluster of data science courses - intro to data science, machine learning, and eventually deep neural networks. I took AI at Stanford and learned a TON but for getting your hands dirty fast the Udacity courses are more appropriate. They have a bunch and they are well segmented so if you want to divert into e.g. data visualization, there's a class for that. Your learning will culminate in this course: https://www.udacity.com/course/deep-learning--ud730 https://www.udacity.com/course/deep-learning--ud730
