I am just starting in Networking and want to progress to NetSec eventually and I was kind of taken back by OPs advice to work 80 hours a week, I want to have a life, not work all the time, so your comment was pretty comforting.
> 2. Don't get certificates
I am progressing through my CCNP and LPIC-1, mostly because I want to get recognized for my skills, but I also see them as a guideline, what to learn next, kind of like a ladder, maybe one day I will get to the top of the ladder and have no where to go, but for now I think that certifications lay a path for me, what do you think about that?
I have lurked here for a long time but never felt intelligent enough or had anything worthy to contribute, until now.
When the article mentions AI (Or any other article/discussion), I don't think it means robots that walk around and greet/interact with you like in iRobot, I would say it means self-serve checkouts, like the ones already in Tescos or McDonalds[1]; or Automated cars/trucks that don't have a need for human interaction[2].
I think that is where the confusion lies with AI, it might not necessarily mean a physical entity.
