Interested in joining a learning cohort for part 1 in early January?

[cynosure (Tahir)]

I browsed the forum a bit to see the discussions on Pytorch and the upcoming course material. Here is one thread

one correction to my above post: It seems the upcoming course will be a Pytorch version of existing Part 1 (or 2?) .

There is also Pytorch version of Part1 available by a fellow student:

Part 1 notebooks in PyTorch

Hi, First of all big kudos to Rachel and Jeremy for your amazing work! I really can’t thank you enough! I’m super excited to see what the buzz is all about for Part 2 I’ve just released PyTorch implementations for notebooks 1, 4, 5 and 6. If you have been waiting for an excuse to learn PyTorch, this is it. I tried my best to follow the original spirit of the notebooks where possible. Lesson 1 was a bit tricky to port but the rest are almost identical feature-wise. I believe Pa…

So this brings to the question :

1. should i wait to start till next material is released ?
2. Start learning pytorch from the already posted Part1 notebooks with Pytorch
3. learn via the “old” keras notebooks and when the new material is available switch to that.

I am still sticking with option 3 to continue making a foundation of concepts. So that switching to pytorch will be easier (hopefully). Switching now to Pytorch seems a bit challenge to me when there are no video lectures available. (if anyone learning DL first time with Pytorch has experience plz share it).
