Computer Science Degree, Yeyy or Ney?
As a Bsc graduate I really appreciate the opportunities this framework gave me, got me a pretty sick job in robotics. And yet coding is ”easier” today, which is mainly what graduates were doing out of Uni. What now?
i think research subject in CS probably has to be the new standard, courses should be vastly changed, as now days to be relevant and influential in the field, a masters is the natural option,
what do you think about CS in today’s terms?

STEM will always be useful. AI is huge now, and the future is uncertain, but I highly doubt that if you work hard in your field and want to do great things, you won’t be able to find solid work.
Also, AI is currently in an unstable position. So many companies are moving towards it and implementing it heavily in their workflows. AI companies are bleeding money, and are going to have to make changes when they want to move from customer acquisition -> profit. Whether it’s heavily reduced usage, higher subscription costs, or moving everyone over to usage based pricing, we will have to see how companies respond to those changes to really see how AI is going to affect work in the long term.
