#2Well... I just started the GIS specialization on Coursera, and I'm also taking the "Statistics with R" sequence on Coursera, along with Geoffrey Hinton's Neural Networks class.
I've also been reading Engineering General Intelligence by Ben Goertzel, et al. I've also been working through a book on automated abductive inference.
So pretty much mostly AI/ML stuff. The GIS thing is mostly about the fact that we're doing some location oriented stuff at my $dayjob and I thought it might be useful to pick up some skills in that area.

Great. AI/ML is definitely relevant in today's world. Udacity also has a course in participation with Lyft - "Intro to Self Driving Cars". I bet a lot of people will also find that useful.
