Ex-Google AI engineer says students should skip PhD

Подробнее о видео

Ex-Google AI pioneer Jad Tarifi, who helped build Google’s first generative AI team, has sparked debate by urging students to skip PhDs in AI. He argues that the field evolves so quickly that by the time a PhD is completed, the knowledge may already be outdated. Instead, he advises focusing on practical skills, hands-on projects, and emerging niches like biology + AI. His view reflects a larger shift in tech: in fast-moving domains, adaptability and skill-building often outweigh long academic journeys. Still, PhDs retain value for those driven by deep research and academic legacy. The balance lies in aligning one’s path with long-term vision rather than hype.
