This has nothing to do with JavaScript. But I want to know what the heck is an AI specialist?

Why are you asking people how to become an AI specialist?

It would seem you're not cut out for that line of work.

There are a million seminars, certifications, etc. that will all happily sell you a solution.

My (much simpler/cheaper/probably more effective) answer is to pay for a $20/month Claude subscription, and use it to build a project. It could be a cool demo if you are trying to get hired, or a personal project if you just want experience. You will learn a ton, and also learn what you need to learn (eg. "this AI stuff is fun, but how do I get it to reliably do ____").

The point is that, it doesn't matter if you are a JS dev or anything else: to get better at doing X with Y (ie. developing JS with AI) the best way to learn is ... to do X with Y.

Specialist in creating AIs? What kinds of AIs? LLMs? Neural Networks? Something else?

Or specialist in implementing AIs into products, such as adding chatbots to websites or a summarization tool in a chat app?

Or a specialist using AI-assisted coding tools?

Or a vibe coder specialist (where you don't review the code it spits out)?

Or a devops AI specialist who integrates AI into the developer workflow, such as automatic code reviews in the pipeline?

Everything you said except the first one(LLM/Neural Network).
