Maybe so but I'm not really in a position to martyr myself professionally right now so I'm just avoiding it instead.



False dichotomy


How so? If I level up on data science and then go work somewhere as a data scientist and refuse to work on the tasks assigned to me I don't see that working out so well in my performance reviews.

To the downvoters - grow up and learn to present an argument.


You could say the same thing about lots of knowledge though: AI, economics, behavioral psychology, crypto currencies etc.

I think most people would agree that there’s lots of positive applications that you could use your data science skills for. But if you can’t then good for you for staying out of the field.
