Oh wow, since when do we lump CS and AI together? One is basically studying maths and logic and how computers, networks and databases work. The other one is how to tell a chatbot to quote a Wikipdia article back to you. I think those are fundamentally different things. And what students should learn first is how to do a powerpoint presentation and write a letter. Or type a math formula into an electronic document, or use the spell checker. Because they rarely learn a lot about that in school.

And yes. Investing in education would be a nice thing. Would have an immense effect on economy and society if we did that.
