How do I keep up with AI when the field changes faster than I can learn it?

You are trying to learn a field that rewrites itself every few months. The ground moves under you, and just when you grasp something it is old news. That is exhausting, and it is not because you are slow. The pace is genuinely inhuman right now. Here is the freeing part: no one has mastered this. The experts you envy are also scrambling. So stop trying to know everything and learn how to learn fast instead. The fundamentals, how these systems think, how to test them, how to reason about them, change far slower than the tools. Pick one solid thing to understand deeply this month rather than ten shiny things shallowly. Depth in a few durable ideas beats chasing every release. You are not behind. You are early, and early is a good place to be.
