4 year degrees in AI already exist.
Here is Edinburgh: https://www.ed.ac.uk/studying/undergraduate/2020/degrees/index.php?action=programme&code=G700 https://www.ed.ac.uk/studying/undergraduate/2020/degrees/ind...

I think the above degrees are more balanced than OP's proposal. More emphasis on foundations, and courses on ethics. Operating systems and compilers are useful if you go into AI engineering but are a diversion from core AI topics.

- noelwelsh 6y agoI don't think that is the case. I just clicked a random course in their curriculum (Convex Optimization) and it links to a Stanford course that requires a login to access the videos.
- joshvm 6y agoEdinburgh has always had a reputation for being a good HPC/computational institute, so no surprises there. It's also nice to see that you are forced to take options from pretty much any other subject, which is quite rare in UK degrees. We had very tight restrictions over which external courses we were allowed to take, presumably due to tight scheduling and a huge number of compulsory courses.
