JDMurray Admin Posts: 13,101 AdminMany colleges have certificate programs in AI now too. It reminds me of all the certificate and Masters degree programs in Digital Forensics that appeared around 2009-2011. I think there was some of that for Blockchain as well. Whatever get the schools admissions, I guess.
There's quite a bit of marketing around the need for AI knowledge and skills for workers to remain useful in their (future) careers. I think this is like advising workers who drive vehicles for a living that they need to understand automobile design and mechanics. We (the workers) will need to know how to communicate with AI (prompting) to do our jobs, but should never need to know how it works to do our job unless we are working directly to improve AI itself.
An interesting read: AI is Mostly Prompting

I do think CompTIA is on to something, and if they can continuously update and improve it will be a worth-while stream. -

... but given how relatively immature this is, and how quickly things are changing in this space, I have to wonder if any of these certifications are really worth it, or just opportunistic on the part of the vendors.
When will we reach "peak AI" and this whole "the next new thing" will begin to slow down? -
