How to get into AI/ML roles? /u/No-Square8182 CSCQ protests reddit

(Disclaimer: ofc I know it’s not easy otherwise everyone would)

For background, doing a PhD in Math at T20 university and looking to pivot into industry. I’m interested in a research role or AI/ML-engineering role but sorely lacking in these areas. Have two previous SDE internships (one at rainforest) but that’s about as far as my technical expertise goes.

I graduate next August and want to boost my resume over the next 6 months. But, not really getting interest for internships/full-time for these roles (or even SDE for that matter.) What can I do or create to signal on my resume “hey I can make ML models hire me”?

Research science might be out since they are heavily focused on CS PhDs, but these data sciency/machine learning-y roles should be doable I think.
