I am incredibly sorry if this is not where I'm supposed to post this.
So I've thinking about the future of my career and what I want to do in life. I'm 17, in high school and college, and working as a janitor. I initially wanted to become a quantitative researcher, with the reasons being because I wanted to prove to myself that I could handle a hard job (often people with this role do math competitions or do intense studying), and because of the pay as well (it's a lot of money). I tried to tell myself that these are good reasons to keep on learning for this role, but I finally felt like it was not gonna happen. I just can't see myself being in an office working for some fund to make them money which gives my job a stupid, unimpactful purpose.
I'm now looking at NLP/Audio Processing/Audio Engineering/AI (I hope these are the right terms), as I have an interest in AI vocalists and I've asked myself " How is this stuff done?" For example, I like the Synthesizer V AI voice Kasane Teto, and the AI voice of Neco Arc, which is made using RVC. I want to be able to use them at some point when I get a laptop, but I will have to wait to get my hands on these AIs. I feel like if i could help develop these kinds of AIs, then i could at least use my creation to do something fun with them. I could write music and have them sing.
I haven't looked into linguistics or studied it in a class, but I would like to take a class in it in the future. I want to study math, but it's boring since I can't apply it yet (precalculus). I even asked my teacher how could i apply this to my real life, and she said that it's just the fundamentals and that I'll be able to use math in the real world soon after precalculus. I probably need to study physics too, but when I was in physics class sophomore year, I didn't pay attention. Is that a bad sign?
I want to be able to have an enjoyable job, but can someone give me advice on how? I could achieve this? Am I cut for this kind of work/field? I would appreciate any advice given to me. Thank you for reading.I am incredibly sorry if this is not where I'm supposed to post this.
