Anyone work in AI? Looking for some advice.

I come from a management consulting background but have a keen interest in AI and its application to organisations.

Im thinking of doing a masters in AI / computer science.

Anyone who is in this field could you give some guidance if my masters will help me pivot into AI quicker or not? Any advice would be appreciated.

There different parts of AI value chain, AI research, product engineering, product design, product sales, marketing, deployment engineering, agent evaluation, agent security. If your focus is more data science, it would help start. Why not learn from Deeplearning.AI they are better than masters

Don’t go to uni for AI.. stuff I’ve delivered in 2024 that was cutting-edge then is now bread and butter in agentic… it moves too fast, what chance does a lecturer stand in delivering content and methods that will uphold by the time you’re finished (or even next month)? Just understand the basics of how LLMs work etc and then find your niche and level of technical depth you want to adopt.

Apart from AI researchers, few people who work in AI actually have AI credentials. Most people I’ve seen have rebadged big data work of 2018-2020 as AI.

Can you do an internal move to learn more about AI or move to another company that focuses on AI, e.g. Unity Asvisory? That would be more valuable than a Master’s.
