Well done, what is your phd in?
nlp, dialogue generation
Hold on, you can do a part time PhD? I didn't know that was an option
I am canadian citizen and I live in Canada, in Canada it is possible
In all universities? How does that work exactly? Like how long does a typical part time PhD take, is it the same difficulty as a full time in terms of work needed. Is it less research and more courses?
Didn't even know PhDs could be part-time, TIL
OP , was the PhD worth it?
Honestly No!!! 😔
Hey, you are just finishing it! You'll see the fruits of your labor down the line, at least a few years. Definitely not immediately Even if it wasn't the best decision to go for it, I think it's amazing that you were able to do this part time while working full time 💯
Good effort working full time and doing a PhD in your time off. That takes real dedication. I don't think I could devote such time and effort to my research whilst also committing to a full time job. Doing one is/was enough to consume me.
What university are you pursuing your PhD from?
Current doing PhD full time and working full time. Based out in the US
Which university? Interested in pursuing PhD but also want to work full time
Can you tell me which university ? Last year did my MS CS online
This ain’t in America. I got accepted to 9/10 top CS programs and this wasn’t a option at any. Has to be Canadian or European
AI/ML is now saturated. You probably need to learn some software engineering to be marketable. AI/ML are luxury positions in most companies
Hmmm
There's at least three people trying to get into ML for every person trying to combine computer science and "non-ML" statistics. Just insane, given what a tiny subset of statistics ML is. Industry needs quantified views of data. But most teams need a boutique machine learning solution about once a year. The amount of machine learning that needs to be done is very small. Complete mismatch in terms of candidate expectations, industry maturity and demand.
