问HN:全力投入人工智能热潮还是享受为人父母的乐趣?
经过多年的努力工作,我和妻子最近终于决定要孩子。我期待着能有更多时间陪伴她,同时只需工作9到5。然而,人工智能的热潮似乎是一次短暂的、千载难逢的机会。现在我在考虑是否应该全力投入,即使这意味着牺牲与家人相处的时间。
选择:
1) 加入一家人工智能初创公司
2) 创办一家人工智能初创公司
3) 留在我现在的大型科技公司
我在目前的职位上收入不错,但我对我所做的工作充满热情。随着人工智能的兴起,似乎有很多很好的基础设施、数据流动和算法挑战摆在面前。然而,很明显,选项1和2似乎需要比简单的9到5工作更多的时间投入。
还有财务方面的考虑。如果人工智能对软件工程师的就业市场产生重大影响,我未来的薪水将会大幅下降。也许在短期内全心投入工作3到5年,赚更多的钱是有意义的?我明白最终我能获得的金额也与一定的概率相关。
还有其他人考虑如何在人工智能热潮与全心投入为人父母之间找到平衡吗?

After many years of working hard, my wife and I finally decided to have a kid recently. I am looking forward to spending a lot more time with her, while working just a 9-5. However, the AI boom seems like a short-lived, once in a life-time opportunity. Now I am considering if I should dive in fully even if it means sacrificing time with family?<p>Options:
1) Joining an AI startup
2) Founding an AI startup
3) Stay at my big-tech role<p>I make good money at my current role, but I am extremely passionate about the work I do. With the AI boom, there seems to be a lot of great infra, data movement and algorithmic challenges on the table. However, it is also clear that options 1 and 2 seem to require a lot more time commitment than a simple 9-5 job.<p>There are also financial considerations. If AI affects the SWE job market in a meaningful way, my future salary will be drastically low. Maybe it makes sense to devote myself to work for 3-5 more years and make a lot more money in the short term? I understand that there is also some probability associated with the final amount I walk away with.<p>Any others thinking about how to approach the AI boom vs leaning in fully to parenthood?
