Did you like pure mathematical logic? ie, predicate, propositional, modal logics?
Do you like, and are familiar with a lot of mathematical notation?
If you answered yes, find a functional language like a LISP or Haskell that suits your needs.
If you answered no, hop on the bandwagon and use python. This is for AI of course, and that's basically the only one you have a choice with. Mechanical engineering(unless you are doing it yourself, for fun?) will almost always have a specific language for you to use. Software engineering depends on what you are developing on.
Windows has .NET, Android uses Java, iOS uses swift(or objective C), and linux and most of it's software is written in C/C++.
Clojure(a LISP) is a good and developing language, and you can compile to almost any platform without much overhead or performance issues at all. It's also quite often used for AI related, and the whole "big data" stuff. Walmart and netflix among other companies are known users.
