We're entering the AI era (or less charitably, bubble) where AI/ML skills are in demand. There are plenty of jobs available for people with 5 years experience in AI (there aren't many people with that kind of AI experience). If you're laid off and have no AI experience then it seems not so easy to find work - not impossible, but it takes some time.
- glouwbug 3y agoGoodbye frontend webdev era?
- denimnerd42 3y agoless funding to throw at products so for now..
- TedDoesntTalk 3y agoYes, websites and front ends will now evaporate because we have AI. /s
- askonomm 3y agoI would imagine AI jobs to still be much of a rounding error in our entire industry.
- UncleOxidant 3y agoOf total current jobs, sure. Of total current hiring? Take a look around LinkedIn.
- Der_Einzige 3y agoYou should ask your normie office worker friends about how much they're using ChatGPT in their day-to-day work. It is being used by just about everyone all the time now. Soon, everyone will need to have at least some skills that an "AI Engineer" has.
- askonomm 3y agoYeah, but those office workers are not required to learn ML or AI engineering practises, because those office workers aren't data scientists or programmers. Using AI !== Making AI. Now, to be clear, I'm not saying that AI won't ever become a centrepiece of most companies, I'm simply saying that it isn't at this very moment yet. Half my digital agency clients haven't even heard of Copilot, let alone would they start building AI for their customers.
- Apocryphon 3y agoSame as it always was: > He had a PhD in AI from MIT. Just to contextualize what that means in Silicon Valley, an MIT AI PhD can generally walk alone into an investor meeting wearing a coconut-shell bra, perform a series of improvised birdcalls, and walk out with $1 million. https://www.wired.com/2014/04/no-exit/ https://www.wired.com/2014/04/no-exit/ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7643902 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7643902
- hotpotamus 3y agoWow, how cynical and yet Sam Bankman Fried was able to get a couple hundred million dressed in a hoodie while playing League of Legends in his investor meeting. Perhaps not cynical enough.
