>>But ML/AI is a whole new world. For almost all programmers who will eventually work with this thing, they will mostly use some frameworks to do it. The real math behind all this stuff is quite old. There are already courses available to do that. Indian statistical institute offers beginner to advanced courses in statistics which you can take, they have been available for decades now. Anything that you will likely do with ML/AI will likely involve using a framework today. >>All this automation and job loss that the original article saying would be nothing if AI comes into full effect. We don't even know if that kind of AGI is possible, let alone achieving it anytime soon. Heck we haven't even come close to defining what AGI is.

>>For almost all programmers who will eventually work with this thing, they will mostly use some frameworks to do it. Frameworks only provide part of it. In the case of AI, they just provide a general way to represent neural networks. Each use case need a different type of network with hundreds of parameters fine tuned and trained. Of course you can download pre-built algorithms and model zoos, but they are at best couple of years old. Also do you think that the best things will be available under a framework? There are open source frameworks (like Tensorflow), but you will be surprised at the amount of research under progress and what portion of it is available for public. For e.g. look at the amount of work that China is doing in the field (And available for public scrutiny) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhp47v5OBXQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhp47v5OBXQ. India (or any other Country) could do proper research in the area or end up buying these stuff from other countries, provided they give state of art technology to others. Just imagine a drone or an army of drones equipped with such AI technology can survey 24/7 and instantly take down your enemy even across a country.
