Does people who have experience in this industry can tell whether it is feasible to learn ML,DL and all

Cause in starting of 2022 it was all clear that ML engineer,AI engineer are two diff things

But now every soft. guy transitioning into AI just start from GENAI ,transformers

So as a guy who started from the basic in this field who knows nothing other than this ,is it feasible to have all these basics or i can also directly jump towards agents,genai etc rather than ML models and stuff

Genuine doubt cause i m very new in this thing

It feels like i am lacking the ability to build all this new agents and stuff
