Ask HN: Has anyone successfully pivoted from web dev to AI/ML development?

I am currently working as a senior full-stack web software engineer. I have a BSc in Computer Science, and on my own, I've been learning more about AI/ML/deep learning. I really enjoy working with it, and I'd love to find a way to work on AI stuff professionally. The problem is that I've been working as a web developer professionally for about 10 years now, and I have no idea how I would pivot to more of a AI/data science role.

Does anyone have an experience of making this transition? As a web dev, I am senior level, but I'm sure I'd have to start from scratch on some things in the AI space. At least I have a good foundation of programming in general, math, and computer science.
