Title: Hi all,<p>I’ve got a BS in Computer Science and have been considering pursuing a Master’s degree part-time with a focus on ML&#x2F;AI.<p>I know the common narrative is that a Master’s in CS really isn’t worth it if you’re just looking for a pay raise. However machine learning is an area I’m interested in but lack the requisite background. I just really worry the degree will mostly be worthless by the time I graduate considering the rate at which AI is advancing.<p>The degree would mostly be for personal knowledge&#x2F;fulfillment, but I don’t want to bother with it if we’re all going to be unemployable in a few years anyways. Another alternative I’m considering is learning HVAC repair as a fallback career.<p>What are your thoughts?
