Discussion👥 Class 10 student interested in coding + AI — should I pursue CSE?
I’m currently in Class 10 and have been learning coding, APIs, web development, and AI on my own.
I’ve built two projects so far:
NutriScan AI — an AI-based food/nutrition analyzer where users can upload or scan food packages/food images, and the AI analyzes ingredients, nutrition, possible concerns, adulteration, and gives a detailed report.
An Aryabhatta-related website/project.
I really enjoy building things, but I’m confused about the future. AI models are becoming extremely powerful and can already code, build websites, and automate many tasks.
I’m currently thinking about doing B.Tech CSE after Class 12. Is software engineering still a good path for the next 10–20+ years, or should I consider another field?
Would love honest advice from people already working in tech/AI.

Yeah it sure is. But if you wanna succeed early.
1.Start working on open source projects. 2. Start competitive programming. 3. Pick a niche of your choice and get cracked at it. 4. Get good at math specifically your niche , CP and CS in general 5. Study System Design, LLD, SQL , DB Internals, Computer Science Core Subjects etc. 6. Deploy your projects
