DeeperHacks for Techies
Welcome to DeeperHacks for Techies — a comprehensive learning platform designed to equip developers and tech professionals with the practical AI skills and knowledge required to excel in today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape.
Artificial Intelligence is advancing at an unprecedented pace, rapidly transforming every facet of the tech landscape. It’s no longer a specialized niche — it's becoming essential to survive and thrive in the industry.
An IBM study revealed that 49% of Indian CEOs are hiring for GenAI roles that didn't exist last year. Additionally, 34% of their workforce will require retraining and reskilling over the next three years, as shown in the adjacent graph.
Yet, many engineers and developers are still lagging behind. A recent Gartner report found that 80% of developers will need to upgrade their AI/ML skills by 2027 to bridge the growing skills gap in the industry.
But Why?
AI is evolving at an incredible speed, with new breakthroughs and tools emerging constantly. Its rapidly growing complexity, illustrated in the graph above, makes it challenging for developers to keep up. This breakneck pace often leaves even experienced professionals struggling to stay current, especially without a clear, structured way to learn and adapt.
DeeperHacks equip developers and software engineers with practical strategies and best practices to effectively integrate AI technologies into their workflows and projects through short, easy-to-digest episodes.

AI's Power Trio : Predict, Classify, Create Video 1 introduces the 3 popular sisters of AI : regression, classification, and generation. |
 |
 |
|
Regression with AI Video 2 explains the first of the three popular sisters of AI : regression. |
|
|
|
Classification with AI Video 3 delves into the second popular sister of AI : classification. |
|
|
|
Generation with AI Video 4, the final video of the series, briefly discusses generation, the last and most challenging of the three sisters of AI. |
|

 Think you’ve grasped the key insights from our first video series, "3 Sisters of AI"? Put your knowledge to the test with this quick quiz and see how well you really understand the 3 most important problems solved with AI. | ||

 The perceptron is the extremely clever model used in the world of AI to represent and solve various AI problems. In this 12-part video series, we explain the perceptron and illustrate how it is used in solving each of the 3 popular AI problems or sisters of AI previously discussed. | ||
|
Understanding Data Video 1 provides an overview of data. We define data, classify it into structured and unstructured data, and further classify structured data into numeric, categorical, and ranked data.  |
|
|
|
Dummifying Categoricals In video 2, we begin an overview of dummification, the process of representing categorical attributes as numeric ones that may be entered into the computer. |
|
|
|
Encoding Ordinals Video 3 winds up the topic of dummification and explains how ranked attributes are entered as numeric ones into the computer. With this video, our review of data is completed. |
|
|
|
Regression with Perceptron Video 4 demonstrates how the perceptron is used to solve regression problems. |
|
|
|
Regression with Matrices Video 5 discusses the matrix method (an alternative to the perceptron) to solve regression problems. |
|
|
|
Classification with Perceptron In video 6, we begin learning to solve classification problems with the perceptron. While the perceptron solution for classification problems is very similar to that for regression problems, the former requires an activation function.  |
|
|
|
Sigmoid for Activation In video 7, we delve into the problems with most common activation function for classification problems, the threshold function. We discuss the sigmoid function, an elegant alternative to the threshold function.  |
|
|
|
Tanh for Activation In video 8, we discuss another continuous activation function, the tanh function, a second alternative to the threshold function.  |
|
|
|
Multi-Class Classification Video 9 explores how perceptrons can be extended to solve multi-class classification problems—where more than two output classes exist. |
