Deep dives
The Rise of AI Experts
The emergence of generative AI tools has led to an increase in so-called AI experts, raising concerns about saturation in the field. Initially, becoming an AI expert required coding skills, but now individuals can identify as experts through skills like prompt engineering, often without a strong technical background. This accessibility creates a paradox, as it allows more people to participate in the field, yet leads to a potential dilution of expertise. Maria highlights this shift, noting that while some new entrants may have an impact, the initial hype will likely settle, filtering out less competent practitioners over time.
