Is course still relevant?

Hello there! As an admirer of your work, I have a question about your latest fastai course(Practical learning for coders on Youtube). With AI advancing so quickly, I’m wondering if the course is still relevant after one year or if it might be outdated. Your insight would help me decide whether to proceed with it.

My opinion is that the courses are still very relevant. If you take a look at the most recent part2 course, it’s about Stable Diffusion, which is a pretty recent discovery.

It’s true that research in AI is moving very quickly at the moment, in that sense no static course can ever be “100% up to date”. It’s thus more important to learn the basics, and learn how to keep yourself up to date, by learning how to read papers etc.
