I’m a maths major recently finished my Bachelor’s with honours in maths, and I was talking to my professor (who does research in maths, stats, compsci and biology) the other day on my future. He seems to be a big glazer of AI/ML and recommends me to study this area. It was interesting hearing his thoughts, and he recommended me I should do a master’s in AI since he thinks AI is the future. This was his take with what he thinks AI/ML as a subject will be in the future though: AI/ML is a subject involving lots of subjects like maths, stats, compsci etc but right now it feels like AI/ML just uses techniques from these subjects. In the future he thinks all of these subjects will combine, and a new subject on AI/ML will be created rather than AI/ML being a subset of stats/compsci considering how big of a subject AI/ML is becoming. He seems to think right now there’s a big AI bubble, and it will pop but AI will regrow and will be a core part of society in the future. I was wondering what everyone else’s thoughts are on this and how much everyone agrees with this idea. submitted by /u/felixinnz
