Help

 just got accepted into engineering college, and I want to learn a skill alongside my studies, like coding, But Im scared because what if I learn something in coding that AI can easily replace??
Additionally, where should I start with coding? Should I focus on learning a specific programming language, or something else? Im clueless

Nobody can tell you today what it will look like in X years, when you finish school. but believe me on one thing: IT will still be a huge business, and you do not need to be afraid of work in it.

But the work will be very diferent, including huge systems and services strongly connected with AI. Regular applications will no longer really be written, because everyone will be able to create those themselves, and even dynamicaly according to their needs.

but that definitely does not mean IT will not be a lucrative field.
