DS/AI Self-Starter Handbook: Build Your Own Roadmap

From a time around when DS/AI field started picking up, every other day I get at least 8-10 messages from DS/AI starters & enthusiasts on 'How can I get into DS/AI field'. Over a while, I have improvised my response based on the follow-up questions they ask like: 1. What is the difference between DS, ML, DL, AI, DM? 2. What are the roles in DS/AI, who does what? 3. What concepts, processes & tools they need to learn? 4. Which books, courses, etc they need to refer to? 5. How to build a DS/AI portfolio? 6. How to write a resume for DS/AI? 7. How to build a helpful network?8. How to search for the job? 9. How to prepare for the interview? 10. How to stay up to date in this still-evolving field? You can notice that these questions are not conceptual ones and there is no dedicated material to address these roadblocks. How about a book or course that gives you enough exposure to the DS/AI field that you can yourself analyze what is needed for you and build your own roadmap? My answer to the above question is this book. This book covers the framework to launch your DS/AI career in 8 chapters.
