1. Get experience. Generally, that involves internships. 2. Look for opportunities to make a quantifiable impact. If you don't understand the business impact of your work then ask. 3. Learn how to use AI properly. It's a productivity tool, nothing more. Those who understand the strengths of AI and the strengths of human analysis and experience and know how to blend those together when creating solutions are the ones who will still have jobs in the future. It's not easy to get that blend right and you're at a disadvantage by not having a lot of solutioning experience - so practice. I’d be careful about going into cybersecurity. AI is well poised to have a significant impact in that area and could lead to substantial job loss, especially in roles focused on monitoring and incident response. If you're considering this path, think strategically: focus on areas that require human judgment, like threat modeling, red teaming, or security architecture. Software development will also be impacted by AI, but likely at a slower pace due to its creative and architectural nature.
