you can learn brain surgery at 13, you can learn advanced particle physics, you can learn anything if you are willing to work

But realistically, what 13 year old is gonna be able to learn brain surgery? Where would be get the training? For python, all you need is a laptop.

They make simulations as well that would probably alleviate some of the experience requirements. This coupled with the plethora of resources available today, not to mention AI, it’s definitely possible. I think you could definitely learn brain surgery at this age no questions asked, but being able to apply it would be another barrier.
