   The AI business seems like a fiercely competitive one. It would seem that a lot of smart minds are working on AI problems these days, and I basically only know the basics of perceptrons, because no one cared about AI until very recently, and ugh, learning an entire new field at age 35? Sounds exhausting.

      If this wave of AI research isn't a fad, I just hope I won't need expertise in the field to stay employable. Every AI paper I've read is dense in equations, and I really hate reading equations. I can grok code, even functional code, but mathematical notation just doesn't agree with how I think.
