Even the AI-based applications need the creative thinking of a human user; almost all the videos and artworks are based on some creative thinking. So improve the creativity; good old writing and reading will do the trick. And for programming concepts still applying since AI models need software architecture and layouts for running and displaying those decision makings. So learning basics is still applying to current trends. And pay some special concern to statistics and some mathematical concepts. I've noticed that my washing machine uses fuzzy logic applications in decision-making. This is a decades-old tech but still used in various advanced technologies. In AI decision-making, we need to convert crisp logic (normal true and false) to fuzzy logics (wide range between truth and false) and make decisions. So I think we still need the basics. So learn those well, learn some basics of AI, especially neural networks, and do some hobby projects with your new knowledge; that would prepare us for the AI trends.
