Is AI going to be one of the upcoming most used topic in IT and what kind of apprenticeship roles are available that's related to AI

Hi, AI is already and increasingly important in [link removed] and it does look like it will be the next "revolutionary" technology. If you want to code, then a Digital & Technology Solutions (DTS) apprenticeship is best suited for roles related to [link removed]'d say that certifications in general are only useful if you want to show you're interested in a field related to the certification and if it supplements your specialist knowledge/XP. So if you want to work in AI specifically, then it will help to show you're passionate in that branch of software engineering, which is good start especially for apprenticeship level, but it doesn't prove you can substantially work with AI. If you only want to do a certification because you feel pressure based on the industry trend, then I'd suggest you only try the certification anyway and if you feel it's not what you want to do, then at least you checked it [link removed] you want to prove/gain significant competency with AI, I recommend you do a project/research rather than a certification. A lot of people do online courses/certification, but these are usually designed to be high-level. If you do a project with your own research into the topic, you'll be likely to learn more in-depth information about the topic, which will be more valuable in applications/for a [link removed] again it's only worth doing if you want to specifically work in that field, but I feel there is plenty of work for now (next decade+) in Software, Network Engineering, Cyber Security, Real Time Operating Systems Solutions, which doesn't require significant knowledge with AI, but may require use of how to use AI tools, which doesn't need knowledge on AI, [link removed] GPT etc (which is far from the extent of AI solutions). Although there is pressure to learn about developing solutions with AI in technology/generally, the "actual" work which will involve improving AI code/solutions/LLMs, computing infrastructure etc., which requires you to have Masters/PhD level knowledge (which you can get without having a Masters/PhD) and that takes significant time/effort to [link removed] hope that helps! Just for the sake of advice; someone started coding in early 2000s thinking the internet search engines/blogs would be the forever and then mobile phones, mobile applications, cloud computing, and now AI, came through and took [link removed] technology adapts rapidly, so just have a flexible and learning mindset and you'll be fine!

Thank you for your response and you're right I'm currently doing an research in AI as I wanted to know more informations about it and just to get an insight vision of it's influences and it's really helping me to understand the topic more clear in depth

No problem, you’ve definitely got the right mindset and having clarity on wanting to specialise in AI is good. If there’s any other questions feel free to ask 😊
