I previously <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/AndrewYNg/status/2088302050706686198" color="blue">wrote</a> about our AI Engineering Skills Map, with the highest level skills being (i) Building and deploying AI applications, (ii) Software engineering fundamentals, (iii) Using coding agents, and...

A key AI engineering skill is using coding agents. Your skill at steering them both to write code and to carry out non-code tasks, such as analyzing data or managing system operations, allows you to get a lot more done....

How have software engineering fundamentals changed with agentic coding? Even when you use a coding agent to write all your code, understanding software fundamentals is important for steering your agent to make the tradeoffs you want — or to even know what tradeoffs exist to be made. Additionally, wh...

I am delighted to present The AI Engineering Skills Map. AI allows us to build software very differently today than in 2022, and everyone with the skills to take advantage of this shift has numerous exciting project and job opportunities. But with the noisy, hype-filled, information environment arou...
