Discussion Data Scientist vs Data Engineering: which is worth it today?

I have just completed my bachelors in computing and i am choosing my Masters in data science or Data engineering with cloud course. Honest opinions please:

  1. Which is worth it in today’s market?
  2. Which has the higher AI automation risk?
  3. Which do you think will have more demand in coming years?

I am seeing that the data people is divided into two groups :

Group 1 : Who says Data science will grow in future and it has less ai impact then other data jobs.

Group 2 : Who says Data is fuel so data engineer will be in demand for future

If you work in either field, I would love to hear what the job is like day to day. Thanks!

I am not eligible to answer your questions but I'd like to ask you one. Where did you find DE with cloud course? I've never heard of it. Show me the link to it.
