I’ve tried to do my own research in determining whether or not i’d like to study ML in my CS masters program, I guess i’m not really understanding what would make this field remain relevant for the next 20 years? With ML tools becoming more accessible, will there be a need for specialized knowledge? I know what ML is currently used for, but what does it have potential to become?
Ok, in one article:

Developing effective drugs is a highly dimensional problem. Now, think of other equally difficult problems in other fields that aren’t being tackled.
That’s the potential.
