Pursuing AI Engineer role vs Traditional ML Engineer role

I may regret focusing too much on AI Engineer role and less on Core MLE topics

What I wish I knew
"Research traditional ML Engineer role thoroughly before pursuing AI Engineer role"
If I could tell you one thing
"Focus on building a strong foundation in both AI and ML before specializing in either role"
