He Young: 过去选择大学专业是一锤定音,但现在随着新专业的涌现和转专业政策的放宽,专业选择变得更加灵活。然而,面对不断变化的就业市场和人工智能的挑战,如何选择一个不会过时的专业成为关键。我认为,学生应该关注新兴项目、行业发展趋势以及人工智能对各专业的影响,以便做出明智的决定。 Fei Fei: 我认为新增专业可以分为四类:支持国家战略、推动前沿技术、适应市场需求以及传统专业的数字化升级。例如,智能影像艺术专业就是人工智能与视觉艺术的深度融合,体现了跨学科的发展趋势。我认为,学生在选择专业时,不仅要关注高科技领域,也要考虑自身兴趣和国家政策导向,以便在未来的就业市场中更具竞争力。 Steve Hatherly: 我认为,尽管人工智能对就业市场带来了一定的冲击,但艺术和人文学科的毕业生仍然可以在服务行业找到机会。我们应该发挥沟通、人际交往和创造力等优势,这些是人工智能无法取代的。同时,我们也应该关注国家政策的方向,选择具有较高门槛的职业,并不断提升自己的技能,以适应快速变化的就业环境。我认为,与时俱进是关键。
