1. Writing code
AI pair programming is a huge benefit.
Tools like #chatgpt & github #copilot can help debug complex code and replace Googling + Stack Overflowing for common scripting.

This is called an #API (Application Programming Interface).
An API allows the user to make requests using a tool they are comfortable with.
The API runs a program that the data scientist has created on the server.
And the API returns a result.

Next, you need 3 of the most overlooked skills:
1. Problem-Solving Skills
2. Time Series
3. Production
These are the skills that will generate the most ROI for your company.
And it's what they will hire you in a recession for.

The learning path for a data scientist is full of traps.
It goes something like this:
- Python (or R)
- Algorithms
- Math
- Stats
- Make a Portfolio
- Get some projects under your belt
- More math
- Neural networks
- Deep learning part 2
- More projects (now with cats & dogs)
