Just sharing my little dreams n thoughts

Question

I'm from Oklahoma, majoring in Computer Science, My 2nd College year starts today.. Interests in web developing, software engineering, or data science.

I am most interested in leaning towards ML/AI since that seems like the future with the most profit.

Although I don't have a clear idea of what I'm doing, I'm currently focused on studying a web development bootcamp. I sometimes wonder what my future even entails or what I should be doing right now.

But whatever, most importantly..

my current career dream would be to work for ROBLOX! ☁️

I miss when I was younger and still have hopes and aspirations like this, it's refreshing to see college kids' perspectives like these sometimes haha

Don’t get your heart set on one company. They often turn out to be different than you imagined anyway. Find something you like doing and do that. You’ll get better at it faster and your career will progress more than if you hate every second of it. You won’t know what you like until you try things out so regarding which area to specialize in, just try stuff and see. Try as many areas as you can early on and double down if you really like it.

It's good that you have some type of goal in mind already with how you want to study ML/AI. Is that something you're personally interested in at all or is that more of a career decision based on what looks promising right now?

I wouldn't choose something because it "has the most profit". It may turn out well, but work enjoyment beats extra $$.The best thing I can recommend is to explore side projects to find your passion. That's how eventually I found what most excites me (which happens to be ML!). In college I built a few applications. From there, I started playing with a lot of different things. For me, excitement derives from complexity and innovation. With now 4 years of SWE experience, I'm having opportunities to apply ML to both work and my side projects. It's a journey! It took me a couple years of side projects and work to figure out something I enjoyed
