Hi @forykw

Making a comment to the comment:
I visited your blog and I realized that your name is just like me. My name is also José but I see that you live in New Zealand, I have always dreamed to visit that country, now that name is a name that they use a lot in Latin America, you are native of that country,
I will understand if you do not answer those questions.

If you know C or C++ and a scripting language, for example like Python, then you can program an AI... even play with Deep Learning... It will also help if You know a bit of statistics and maths... and that's it.

I've always wanted to learn that language, I see that the possibilities are endless, I don't know if at my age I can or I'm in time to learn.

The subject of AI I like very much and I know that it is very interesting and also I know that there is still a long way to understand in its entirety how it works however if it comes from man means that we are all in the ability to understand AI.

From Venezuela, a country that fights for its freedom, I send you a big fraternal embrace that crosses the oceans.
