I feel like I hear just as many people getting degrees in "AI" nowdays as plain CS degrees. A much higher percentage than five years ago. It feels like everyone and their grandma is minoring or majoring in AI or machine learning. And when I talk with companies about it, they're lukewarm at best. I really wouldn't bet my personal career at this point on going into this area. It'll be filled to the brim sooner than you expect. It's a much better, and just as intellectually satisfying, bet to just go into plain traditional CS in my opinion. (A counter argument is that I felt about the same sentiment around three years ago, but my intuitions doesn't appear to have manifested, so maybe I have poor intuitions, or I'm missing some piece of the puzzle.)
