Summary

I'm early in my career and self-taught, working on breaking into AI engineering, and I want one honest hour with someone actually in the trenches — not a sales pitch, not encouragement. Just a candid conversation, video on. What I'm after: your unvarnished read on how someone in my position actually breaks in, where the field is really headed, what companies are truly paying to have built or solved, and — if you were starting out today with what you know now — exactly what you'd do over the next 6 months. About me: no CS degree, no traditional pedigree — I've been learning by shipping real projects (I've built a couple of small live AI products end-to-end: RAG, an agent, automation). I know enough to ask good questions and I'll come prepared so we use the time well. I'd also love to show you one thing I built for 60 seconds of brutally honest feedback.
