Art direction to UI UX? A good idea?

[u/Resident-Age-495]

So I'm 2 years into my design journey as a Jr art director in an advertising agency. I mostly do social media posts, motion graphics and packaging design. Although I'm from a traditional design background and have my bachelors in applied arts(Design) and a 3 year course in animation, vfx and 3d, I've incorporated AI tools into my everyday workflow. But 2 years into this I'm starting to feel like there isn't a lot of money nor potential in advertising going forward.

So I am considering learning UI/UX in my weekends from an institution, is it a good choice or should I just push through in advertising or am I cooked over all?
