How Do You Feel About "Bootcamps?" Are They Worth It?

[Panos Daras]

Is the problem it being a bootcamp? What if I decided to get a degree at a university in AI/ML what is your opinion on this?

There is no problem with being in a bootcamp or getting a degree. Your problem is that you are thinking in hypotheticals and not executing enough. When you execute and keep your peripheral vision open, options become clearer. I believe you received amazing advice in this thread, but you are not willing to listen to it and instead attack each point with hypotheticals. Hypotheticals do not solve problems; action and iteration do.
