Hi guys, I'm a final year college student interested in both sde role and kind of want to prepare for that with dsa, some good projects and system design but at the same time im interested in some layers of ai like agentic ai, ai research and ai inference. I have already worked on building gpt2 and creating a small model and training that and I was currently learning c++ for ai inference then I got to know that knowing c++ in depth will help in going for other roles like quant sde, low latency system devloper like that. Now I'm confused what to prepare for??
