> 39 AI Developer Growth (Google Ecosystem as Proxy) = +5x to 7MM Developers Y/Y I am sure a majority of those are from India. A small industry has formed here imparting "AI" training, for very cheap, online and courses with duration of a few months to 2 years. https://www.shiksha.com/online-courses/artificial-intelligence-courses-certification-training-st551-tg1405 https://www.shiksha.com/online-courses/artificial-intelligen... India School of Business, one of the highest ranked business schools in India, is offering leadership courses with a touch of AI, for as little as 10 lakh rupees (about 11000 USD). For a majority of IT folk in India, that is a very reasonable amount for a course from a very reputed institute. Many IT folk here are scared to the core about their jobs and there has been a mass movement towards AI certificates. While the courses teach the basics, none of them are at a university level. Most of the students are only users of tools though. Would you call them AI developers? Meh. They get by. Most of the work in India is back-office work anyway, and these AI engineers end up doing data related tasks mostly. Very few are actually building worthwhile AI stuff.
