What do I do

I am a current CS student an I am at a complete loss at what to do.

I originally went to school in 2018 for business, but I hated the degree and once covid hit I took a break from school and just worked for a few years. I decided to go back to school to study CS after polishing up on my math since I was never the best at it (I got a 96% in my calc class last semester which im quite proud of) but now everyone I know is telling me CS is doomed and that I need to switch my major. This really makes me sad because I have always loved the idea of being a programmer and getting to solve problems using code and computers. I have also really grown to love math so the idea that AI agents are going to be able to both of these things better than I ever will be can honestly really make me sad sometimes.

I spent all of this work outside of school studying math on khan academy spent all this money on classes and now the path that I am passionate about seemingly has no future.

I've been eyeing electrical engineering as it is sorta close to CS and I will still get to learn some programming and get to take a lot of math. Im more interested in the embedded side of things but I guess im not sure if that has much of a future wither.

I guess my overarching question is are there any majors where I could learn something technical, involving math and problem solving that will have a future?
