1. I think this is exactly the wrong venue to get valuable answers to this question.

2. Nonetheless, I'll give you mine as a counterpoint to the consensus:

A CS degree has never been a strict requirement for entering its field; we could debate how the value of one will change in the near future, but: nearly every other Engineering degree is a prerequisite for practice, and imho all of those other career paths are much less likely to be affected by AI than Computer 'Science' is. If you're selecting for job security, I would strongly consider one of those other avenues. And take a couple CS classes for good measure so you be well positioned to engage with AI in whatever form it does come to your field.
