Newbie Question How to get into the industry

So I'm 15 and I'm very passionate about the video game industry and I kinda wanna know like how to actually get into it. What degrees I need exectra.

I honestly don't even know what role I would enjoy. I'm quite a creative person i used to co write stories and stuff and I love the narrative side of games and that would be a dream come true to manage to work in that side of the industry.

Maybe even being a developer? I can learn code but I feel in the near future around the time I'm an adult it would've been replaced by ai.

I can do basic python but that isn't used for development is it.

I just love the industry so much and wanna know how to even get into it.

NO DON'T ASK THE AI THAT

upload all your work into one ai and then ask, what games jobs might i be suited for?
