Online free data sources
Can’t do much with machine learning and artificial intelligence with out data so I started to put together a list of free online sources of data:

and

I can’t recommend these classes enough. I’ve taken the iPhone Development, Intro to Artificial Intelligence, Intro to Databases, and Machine Learning classes.
It’s my thought that the future of education will not be 4 year degrees on site, but life long learning at home.
If you need to brush up on some math first try Khan Academy, Wolfram Math World.
Free online AI and Machine Learning classes at Stanford
Stanford is offering free online classes in Machine Learning and Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
I’ve taken their iPhone programming class and it was fantastic. I’m going to take the AI class to brush up on things and the Machine Learning to learn some new things.
Classes begin Oct 10 and run through mid Dec 2011.
