Oh gosh

AI has issues with general things. It's been 15 years since the last spewing of AI taking over coding from humans.

Actually if anything AI helps programers from making stupid mistakes but that's it at least for now.

So plenty of CS jobs around.

If your kids don't know how to code by age 13 and take CS learning to code in college, they are chasing money and are not going to make it.

AI is very good in writing

Artificial Intelligence will write the code for other programs. Hence no more humans needed, except the ones programming the AI, and those need to be exceptionally intelligent. We're on the cusp of a revolution and those CS majors will have to be flexible and adaptable.

Why do you associate CS degrees with coding?

Short-hand. It's not just coding, but management and operations as well. The entire chain will be revamped and need less humans.

So you mean IT, not CS.

It does seem like everyone wants to major in CS these days. I think a strong job market and high paying starting salaries have made it appealing. I do think we are coming into a period of time where it will be harder to get a job with a CS degree and the salaries will decrease. Too many graduates with the same degree.

Ours has always been deeply drawn to logic, puzzles, languages, and the creativity and imagination associated with a virtual world, with a healthy dose of math and philosophy. CS is perfect for all of this.

Also, he built his first PC at age 10 and never stopped digging into the world of what the technology side of science can do and may do.

Everyone I know just wants to make alot of money when they graduate. Short sighted in my view because A. AI and B. the entry level salaries may be high but not alot of upward mobility from there. C. Boring as hell.

He really likes video games.

So… seems like every other child applying to college wants to major in computer science. If you have one of these kids, what are their specific reasons for wanting this major? Are all of these kids engaging in computer science activities currently or are they thinking that they will just try it out as a major and see what happens? It seems like the biology major equivalent for all of the premed students.
