The biggest problem is that even OP is unaware of what is really being skipped: math, stats, optimization & control. And like at a grad level.

But hey, import AI from HuggingFace, and let's go!

The worst part of ML is Python package management

I’m very happy to see that the industry has moved away from the blockchain hype. AI/ML hype at least useful even if it is a buzzword for most places

So true.

With LLMs, I can think of a few realistic and valuable applications even if they don’t successfully deliver on the hype and don’t actually shake the world upside down. With blockchain, I just could never see anything in it. Anyone trying to sell me on its promises would use the exact words people use to sell a scam.

Where's discrete mathematics?

Math? I write code, that's words bro. Why would I ever need math?
