Tech jobs are drying up but like the article says - if you’ve got some serious qualifications in AI - you can get paid 2-4x the amount of other engineers. 7 figure comp is not uncommon for people in AI. It’s also the one type of tech worker that they cannot seem to get enough of.
It’s no surprise that the grifters in my professional network all shifted to AI stuff 2-3 years ago. The people who wanted to deliver genuine and good work have all (foolishly?) stayed the same - the folks who chase fame and money all shifted to AI.
I’ve been on “sabbatical” for 2.5 years. I saw the downturn and decided to not work. I figured we’d be back to normal by now but considering FB just rescinded my offer - we’re far from it.
- christophilus 2y agoI’m late to this thread, but my money is against the grifters. There is much to be said of technicians who k ow their craft and have solid experience and wisdom. I don’t think those of us who are in our 40s or 50s have anything to worry about. Time will tell, though.
