What's happening @king_kerr (Go Dubs). It starts from the first day of class which is Jan 20th.

Hey @pchal, We'll mainly use Python with Jupyter notebooks and will gear the program towards GPUs on AWS. We'll focus on using Tensorflow as our main tool. There will be a discourse forum as well as a slack channel for students to

Hey @qrco, you'll be expected to spend 4 hours a week.

Hi @wodenokoto - sorry for the lack of clarity. The Live Sessions will be a live Youtube stream held by Siraj where he answers your questions as you ask them in the session.

Hi @aalireza, 1. We'll provide instructions to use AWS (65 cents an hour) and are working with AWS to get students credits. We've done this in the past so there's a decent chance we get this but no guarantees yet. 2. The cour

Hey @dnautics! The main deadlines are around 5 projects that you will do over the course of the 17 weeks. We have suggested deadlines for them but the only requirement is to pass all of them within the 6 month date of the program. There wil

Hi Akshay, You have 6 months in total to finish all the content. Siraj is also posting some segment of the content for free on YouTube for everyone to see. The new material is added weekly!

Hi @halite, I'd say that covers a larger breadth of Deep Learning than the Self-Driving Car Nanodegree program. For instance, this program will cover Recurrent Neural Networks, Reinforcement Learning, Autoencoding, and other Deep Lear

Hey @wcbeard10, This course will focus primarily on TensorFlow. We're doing so because, at the moment, it's the most popular Deep Learning framework and provides you enough flexibility to explore some of the newer network architec

Hi all, My name is Dhruv and I work on the AI programs here at Udacity. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here or email me at dhruv@udacity.com. I'll do my best to answer everything! You can see our curriculum in depth h

Totally agree with the sentiments here that this is a first pass and not for production use. In fact, that's exactly the intent of this project. It's meant to be a very first pass for people to get a sense of what's possible

Hey, Again this is a totally valid question. I can confirm that Otto will indeed consider someone from this program as we are working with their VP of Engineering, Drew Gray, to actually create this program.

Hi wburgo, It's hard for me to give a number for a few reasons: 1. Not everyone applying actually wants a job. A lot of people are taking this program just out of curiosity and interest. 2. It really depends on where you live. People i

Hey rerock, That's exactly right. We have terms opening on different months so that you have a community of students you do the program with.

Hi Sean, We had way more demand than we expected so while you may have applied for October, we were only able to get you a spot for November. We're doing this to make sure that you have all the support you need in the program. If we tr

In the foreseeable future we will not. However, our hope is to do that eventually (probably at least half a year away) as we do with all our content.

Hey! Great questions. We limit the first batch for two reasons: 1. This is the first batch of the program ever and we want to make sure it's great before opening it up. We want to use this batch to learn and improve and then focus on l

Yes! Those count as well. If you see our application we specifically mention courses from Coursera and EdX as well.

I would optimize for completion. We'll be looking for students who've shown they can aim for end to end completion in the program. Hope that helps!

Hey! Great question. We strongly believe that it's important to understand the ethical implications of such technology. However, we don't believe we are experts or authorities on the ethical implications and as such will provide r

Hey! We do indeed have people who got jobs fresh out of graduating from our program. Obviously it's hard for me to discount all their prior experience and say it was entirely up to us. What I can confirm is that within months of gradua

One interesting thing to me is that today we are able to collect way more data around driving than before. Since 2004, almost all of us have an incredible video camera in our pockets capable of recording our driving and the road conditions.
