Should You Learn AI or Cybersecurity?

[Moreno233]

AI is for everyone which makes it necessary for all to have knowledge of its usage. As a technology that is finding its application in every field of human endeavors, it is important we pay attention to it so we are not left behind because AI has come to stay and it will only keep getting better. Therefore, everyone need good knowledge of AI and to be clear, having cybersecuriity knowledge does not stop anyone from.learning AI.

Channeling the usage of AI into YouTube Faceless Automation for business and growing channels is a sure lucrative and passivity earning system, for individual who want to leverage the technology and uses it for their advantage, earn more money and leave the newest lifestyle.  Learning how to use AI is pretty much the best thing someone could really keen to learn more than cybersecurity for easy knowledge.

Whether companies should focus more on AI creation, or more Security to safeguard these new AI technologies? Which of these are more important?

Both.

This dwells down to your interest. Do you like to be a cybersecurity analyst? then choose that.

But if you like with how things are being done through AI, then be an AI prompt engineer or anything that's related to it.

You have to figure out which career do you think suits you right now. Because eventually, if that piques your interest then you'll choose it.

And what's good with these industries is that you can shift when you think you have no room for growth to the one you've choosen.

I was inspired from a post here that talked about Generational Advantagehttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5574328.0 by Furball808. And it talked about that the Generational Advantage that the newest Generation have is AI Technology. We know that AI itself has many flaws and is not infallible. Especially in its parts where it can be possibly be exploited. Threat actors also advance alongside the newest technology. Now this got me thinking on which field is more in-demand and most importantly, lucrative, to start a business on?

AI and cyber security are completely different things, neither of which is similar. However, in the current context, if you do not use AI or do not know how to use AI, then ultimately you will be behind in many aspects. Even if you have a lot of skills, the work that you would do in 1 hour, if you know the correct use of AI and use it correctly, you can complete that work in less than 10 minutes. So not only in cyber security, but in any field, you should have knowledge of using Ai and it is very helpful. So it is not right to neglect Ai in any field.

[Vaculin]

Both are essential to learn. AI and cybersecurity may have different targets but they complement each other. So if you can maximize learning from AI and study as well how cybersecurity works, you will have a good career in the future.

Everyone may learn fast about AI as it can be easily understood and performed, but the real challenge is on cybersecurity as you can't develop your skills there without learning the basics first, and without significant amount of experience that links to cybersecurity.

Both are in demand, so we should not limit ourselves from learning both.

The AI boom is most likely due to the success of the transformer architecture and the huge progress of large language models. Of course, computer vision and audio-video content generation have also made tremendous progress. However, it is not a thinking substance, which means that real AI is still far away (if at all feasible). Therefore, the boom will gradually come to naught. But cybersecurity will always be relevant and in demand as an industry. Because no matter what, scammers have been and will be. And scammers are always the first to use advanced technology. Therefore, cybersecurity would be the right choice.

Artificial intelligence is a technology that is literally impossible to predict, I mean what will happen to it next. because it is developing very rapidly, and as far as I know, it is already helping to improve itself. There were articles about this and the developers were surprised that artificial intelligence has such cool abilities now. you will remember for yourself how bad the videos that the AI generated were just a year ago, and now they are practically indistinguishable from reality and a little scary for what will happen in a year.

If you have the ability to learn both of them, just do it because they are both relevant. one thing with tech skill is that you can learn as much as possible if you put your mind to it. as people get more interested in tech, the need to learn how best one can secure his account and online present becomes really necessary and if you are someone that has a cybersecurity skill, you will be sort after both at the present and in the future.

Also, if you are building a company, you have to know the direction your company is headed so if you are learning a tech skill, you learn the one that finds application in the area you are headed to. it is not a must that you get to learn about AI and cyber security because if you are running a company that does not require much of these two, you might will just need to focus more on what is relevant in the field you are into.

These are two fields that overlap in some places but are quite distinct in others. You should probably go for the one that seems more interesting to you, because ultimately if you love what you're doing then it feels less like a job and that can make life go a lot easier. Both of these should be around in future, but it's worth considering that even cyber security might be replaced in future if algorithms and encryption gets incrementally better at preventing access. That might see the job market shrink slightly for cyber security as AI enables more automation, but there will always be some kind of demand for that job. AI will also cover much broader scopes and can be used on every kind of business, which is not always true or necessary for cyber security (sometimes other companies handle the intricacies for you).

Both is important where many use AI and they also concern about cyber security to prevents the hacking or others. Those who wants to start a business needs to know how to secure their business. Both, AI and cybersecurity runs together and if you have knowledge on both, you can handle it without a problem. Young generation know how to be content creator so they start with this without using the high tech devices. They can use the opportunities to make money and if they also have knowledge about cybersecurity and AI, they will use it together to securing their business.

[NotATether]

Cybersecurity is mandatory so that you know how to protect yourself from online threats.

It's value does not lie in how much money you can make.

Whereas learning AI is optional and most people will be just fine without it.

I am glad my thread can generate more discussions.

Honestly I think right now many are still developing AI and so more are looking for bright minds to help that put into fruition. But I will not be surprised if I see the demand for security rise up as AI continues to develop after a few years.

[sunsilk]

AI is likely to reach its peak from this point and from the next few years. What I think is that cybersecurity is going to be needed at all times.

But this is just my choice if I'm going to learn something new and want to be an expert with it, that's with cybersecurity.

Going with the fundamentals, to the major path way of what I have to learn. I'll probably take that route of cybersecurity but salary wise, I think both are lucrative.

[Rockstarguy]

Both AI and cybersecurity are very important in this day and age. You need cybersecurity to protect yourself from scams because we live in a world where everyone engages on the internet, so cybersecurity is very important.

AI technology also plays an important role in the present day, and it is so widespread that in every career, AI has a role to play. Therefore, if anyone has knowledge in either of them, it is very valuable in the age we find ourselves in.

[Salahmu]

If anyone is planing to learn a skill, it does not have to be a choice between AI or cybersecurity, because there are many other things that you can learn that will remain important. Some of these skills are Robotics, software engineering and Development, cloud computing etc. If you can learn this other important skills, you will be sort after too by companies who will pay you as well as what those with knowledge in AI or cybersecurity earn, sometimes even more.

All this are trending tech skills but somebody should not only look out for the lucrative basis but how they can get into working after accomplishment of the skills because is not all of this skills you can learn and get employed very fast or attracting clients that would give project to work for them immediately, although I could be wrong about it but based on how tech is in my country some of this are not regarded by the government and almost all the companies, especially the Robotics, we have school that taught this skills on a degree level but is difficult to land a job with the skills but with those other ones I have seen people working remotely.

[Promocodeudo]

Considering how important both skills are, we shouldn't limit ourselves to learning just one of these skills and leaving the other, we know how important cybersecurity is, I don't think if we have the opportunity and what is needed to get this skill, we should joke on it, in the recent times, AI has been performing or will I say doing the unimaginable, AI perform Task that ordinarily would've taken humans much time to do although it has also made some people lazy and fake, to me the application of these two skills have helped humans to combat some issues easily, we shouldn't put aside how Cyber attacks has been on the rise, some individuals wants to still some classified information from our gadgets, having a good knowledge of cybersecurity will help us to know how to setup securities that will be very difficult for those shady characters to crack, for me both skills are good to go with.

[XZERO1]

By Cybersecurity do you mean AI-driven cybersecurity? I'm guessing yes.

Asking Because cybersecurity has been around since internet was a thing and it's not a fresh thing to go after I would say, now if you combine the power of AI and try to make cybersecurity faster, more efficient and more accurate, then that's something interesting.

The difference between AI and AI-driven cybersecurity and which one will be more useful for you personally in the future will depend on a lot of factors and your personal interests, but considering almost every person these days is going in on learning AI without bothering themselves with the details and is just trying to learn just the basics on anything involving AI, I would totally recommend Cybersecurity as long as it aligns with your personal interests, you can bet the demand for such a skill will be much higher than someone that just knows some stuff about AI.

There shouldn't be any limitations when it comes to skills. If we have the opportunity, we should strive to learn everything. Neglecting a skill can prevent us from taking advantage of future opportunities, so we should acquire skills in many areas to improve ourselves.

Both artificial intelligence and cybersecurity are vast fields, and within these fields, there are many areas requiring specialized knowledge. Developing skills in these areas gives individuals an advantage and allows them to seize opportunities in the job market that emerges with developing technology.

[BRINIRHA]

I think learning both is essential. We cannot study just one of them. because we also need cybersecurity and we must not fall behind in our understanding of how to use AI or the basics of AI. which will one day become an integral part of our daily lives. So, yes, learning about AI and cybersecurity is necessary and we cannot neglect either one. Unless someone truly feels safe and is not concerned about cybercrime, which will continue to evolve. Even they will use AI to compromise the security of a system. We can use AI to study cybersecurity. I think that is also appropriate.

In this current era, even if you want to be a Cybersecurity expert, you also have to be an expert on the AI technologies because Artificial Intelligence is gradually taking over every sector and in this case, those who cannot strengthen their skills through Artificial Intelligence will be able to survive in this competitive market for a very short time.
I am not saying here that Artificial Intelligence will take over his place, rather I am saying here that if he does not know how to use Artificial Intelligence in his sector, then another person who has good knowledge about Artificial Intelligence can replace his job place.
