Hi there .

Artificial Intelligence is the ability of machines to seemingly think for themselves. It is a very innovative and highly paid stream. In todays world the need for such technologies and such engineers is growing at a high rate . So yes it is in new horizons. Also it involves a lot of other things like cyber security and performance. And robots, smart homes etc . Currently it is the best stream for people who have very innovative mind and wish to push limits further. Also it is highly paid . So it is the next level.

Also there are courses for this online or offline. 

Hope this was helping.
