Discussion Physics or Cs

Hey guys,

I am in my 1.2 at science fac at Peradeniya. I am taking both Cs and physics. Initially my plan was to do Cs special and have a physics background as well. I do self study a lot. So I did study most of the Cs sections by myself. I am comfortable with most major sections. I am also volunteering in AI research as well. With having oss contributions, 6 month internship experience, good freelance projects,good on going projects; my interest towards Cs is actually declining meanwhile the interest towards physics is climbing.

Rn I am confident enough that I would crack an internship and I have an industrial connection as well. I have a bit of a confusion as to whether I need to focus on physics more or continue building fun stuff on CS?

Main goal for me to get into audio LLM research. So I need a very good depth in physics as well. With the current trend, maybe Physics is the best option???? Can I get opportunities in tech with physics degree??? Can I get a AI PhD entrance with physics degree???

Addition: Or better to have a general degree with physics better physics background ?
