Microsoft released a list of jobs most at risk being taken over by AI and data science was listed

At risk doesn't mean it'll take over for sure, but it would be a good idea to have another skill just in case

I've heard data science jobs are easy but get hard once in a while; what is actually true, idk

If you love data science, go for it! but have a backup plan

Answer 2

Pretty sure the easy data sciences jobs will be gone due to AI.

But AI is not very creative at finding use cases for AI. That is where we have the advantage as humans. Wether you can get paid for that advantage or not, depends on skill, luck, geographical location, etc.

For a more steady reliable source of income, may I suggest you learn a trade like HVAC technician.
