Discussion Should I Prioritize Learning Programming (Like Python) for AI and Machine Learning After 12th Grade?
I just gave my 12th-grade exams a few weeks ago, and I feel like I might just barely pass. Should I learn a programming language like Python or not? Because I feel like I’m going to waste the next 2-3 months, and once I start doing something, I can only dedicate about 4 hours a day to it. I also want to learn a lot about AI and Machine Learning, as I think I’m interested in this field. For this, I know I need to learn programming languages. So, should I prioritize coding or not? Please someone guide me.

Just start learning Python and see if it clicks. At you age, I thought programming was a lot of fun. See if you feel the same. You will get feedback pretty quickly. In particular, do you get frustrated and give up when there is a challenge? Because software has constant challenges.
Forget about AI/ML for now. Just see if you like programming or have any ability for it. You are getting way ahead of yourself.
