What O’Reilly Learning Platform Usage Tells Us About Where the Industry Is Headed
Welcome to our annual report on the usage of the O’Reilly learning platform. It’s been an exciting year, dominated by a constant stream of breakthroughs and announcements in AI, and complicated by industry-wide layoffs.

Which do they need to add? What do they need to know to do their day-to-day work? In short: Where have we been in the past year, and where are we going?
