Take care of your happiness because no one else will.

I suggest you look at what IT positions are open and what kind of skills they need.

Yes, even the IT world is fickle and the job market for entry positions is in a rut both due to an implosion and AI.

Cyber security is still a very nice prospect IT wise. People will also need the basics of set up and trouble shooting with an office environment. Select codes to will have programmer openings.

Its good to talk to your advisor too. Plenty of jobs in it still, but it is no longer the wunderfield it once was. Usually its code mixed with something else that leads to further openings. Like Python with a GIS degree is a key to a lot of fields often neglected in the IT world.

Trust nothing that comes from Accademia they are paid to lure you into useless qualifications that at best drive down the wages of people by increasing the supply of labour and at worst get you into indentured servitude. Learn skills for your own sake so that you are less dependant on the system and other people. With the way the world is going we may need to start doing a lot of stuff ourselves when the powers that be start demanding ever more restriction on what we can buy and do.

My main degree is in electrical engineering dç to daylight. I use that info near daily. There are a fair number of of fields that are always in demand (almost anything engineering and security). Take a look at what's needed that ai fails utterly at. :)

I think it's true, yes. Not impossible to find a position, but difficult. I was able to make good money as a programmer in an age when programming was at its infancy.

You may have to choose whether to do something you love or to do something that you can make money with. If I had to do it now, I might go for an electrician's job training. That can't be currently replaced by AI and in the foreseeable future won't be replaced by AI or robotics.
