Until a few years ago, the AI Engineer was supposed to actually train a model (and know how to train and evaluate it in a correct manner and put in production + evaluate while the model is running over time).
But today both Software Engineers and Data Scientists need to embrace the advent of the pre-trained models and Gen AI (otherwise they will be useless in 5 years and loose their jobs).
So i still think that today's Gen AI engineers are just Software Engineers that know how to put all of the AI components together and just use an API call to the trained AI. Likely they do not know 80% of AI literature amd how to train and build a model from scratch.
Unfortunately this will be the direction in this field in the near future (until the AI will take over and these jobs will be useless)
