>>However now I feel like whatever I invest time in learning right now is quite likely to be "useless" due to AI in less than a year.

Why do you think so? What advances have made you come to this conclusion?

Looking at some examples of GPT Code Interpreter that people have posted, you can see that you can e.g. without knowing much about Python generate a great data analysis from just a dataframe using AI.

The only interesting example that I saw was of a 60 mb survey data being analyzed and report being generated. In many real world cases that I have worked with, the clients hardly know which question to answer, and how to collect the data to answer that question. That being the case, I think this field will be around for a few more years to come.

Ample time for us to evolve and transition.
