Interesting stance - sounds like sales pitch for a career coach hahaha I think everyone is an individual and being challenged early in your career can be great, but that's my individual perspective, definitely not for everyone I guess. Not sure if I've waste my time being trigger

Yeah disclosure my company runs an interview prep and mentorship platform to help people get ready for interviews. We don't solve these problems I'm talking about but we help people on the ground who are in the process of changing jobs. So some overlap, I disclose if I was directly promoting my company to someone :P
Teaching AI or using AI?
BloomTech has a B2B $5000 'using AI' course that's 5 months or something fairly detailed.
Codesmith is working on an AI add on package and had the first session this week and someone who went didn't find it very useful yet. (It's early stage)
Most of the companies I talk to don't really need any AI skills yet and want senior product engineers who will figure out AI. Because it's changing so fast there isn't a way for these companies to consistently and fairly test people for AI so it's not really meaningful yet in hiring decisions.
It might matter if you just perform better as an engineer because of AI competing head to head with another engineer who isn't using it.
