Artificial Intelligence Career Advice • r/artificial

That was 4 months ago, and at that time I determined my existential purpose in life to be to do everything I can to move the field of artificial intelligence towards general AI. There's a bunch of reasons I want to do this and it's giving me a lot of value and meaning in my life, but that's irrelevant to this thread. I am currently enrolled in university and am majoring in Computer Engineering. I chose this major because it would give me a lot of knowledge in both the hardware and software aspects of computer systems and I think it's overall pretty flexible. At least that's what I've been told.
