[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much do you get paid? Are you making at least $300k and/or a lot of equity in a promising AI company? Then stick it out for a couple more years, otherwise change jobs asap. You need to think of your career as a marathon. If you get burned out and shocked by 14 hour days at 26 you impact your earning trajectory for the rest of your career. In the early years you want to stretch yourself, not traumatize yourself.[b] No clue how someone can do intellectual work for 12-14 hours a day, 4-5 max, anything beyond that is useless work[/b].[/quote]

The reality is that people are spending a lot of time at work, but they are not producing a lot of results.

In any case, OP, here are the things that are working great for you -
- You have a well paying job, a Master's degree  from one of the top CS schools
- Your parents are on board to have you at home and take your time - if that is ever a concern. 
- You are young.

My advice to you also will be to don't be too devoted to your work.  Get a few strategic wins but carve out some time to take small breaks during the day, do some breathing exercise, get in your steps, make good choices for eating etc.    And keep looking for new jobs.
