Is AI silently ending human creativity?
Artificial Intelligence is growing rapidly every year. Today, I learned artificial intelligence could create HTML code to handle the front-end part of a website; way better than I ever could writing the code myself. This compels me that AI is the end of human creativity, because it produces tasks with superb quality without having to use critical thinking or creativity. I wanted to become a software developer, but now I feel I need to change careers because AI practically took my job. What is a job in the tech industry you feel AI couldn't conquer and take place over people? Edit: Thank you all for the answers. I now learned that AI should be used as a tool, and as an assistant, which could boost creativity and make myself open to options I never even knew existed, using AI.

Now iam doing Bsc Cs Data Analytics
Is the Coursera IBM Data Science Certificate actually valued by Indian employers, or is Intellipaat/IIT Roorkee the safer bet for placement?
I see a lot of praise for international certifications on this sub IBM Data Science Professional Certificate on Coursera, Google Data Analytics, etc. And sure, the content quality seems solid. But here's my concern: Indian recruiters, especially at mid-size companies, may not recognize these as much as they would an Intellipaat certificate or something co-branded with iHub IIT Roorkee. The IIT name carries real weight here in ways it might not internationally. So my question is specifically for people who've been through hiring in India: Does a Coursera certification help or hurt you compared to a domestic paid program? And is the IIT Roorkee branding on Intellipaat's course something that actually comes up in interviews, or is it just a selling point?
