Don't need millions of AI researchers, we just need one. One perfect one.

interesting. those salary numbers are way higher than my "normal programmer" salary. I've been out of the job hunting game for years, but I don't recall seeing much for AI when I last looked. I'm guessing they're largely hiring in the bigger tech cities, so my local area wouldn't have much.

Tencent has had some recent publicity about paying huge salaries, even when compared to Western salaries.

Tencent says there are only 300,000 AI engineers worldwide, but millions are needed - The Verge

'According to the study, compiled by the Tencent Research Institute, there are just 300,000 “AI researchers and practitioners” worldwide, but the “market demand” is for millions of roles. '

'Tencent’s new “2017 Global AI Talent White Paper” suggests the bottleneck here is education. '

'It’s well-established that talent is in short supply in the AI industry, but a new report from Chinese tech giant Tencent underscores how great the need might be. '

'Around the world, tech giants regularly complain about the difficulty hiring AI engineers, and the demand has pushed salaries to absurd heights. '

'One independent AI lab told the publication that there were only 10,000 individuals worldwide with the right skills to spearhead serious new AI projects. '

This has been an automated message.

Once AI is coded it will do the rest.

that explains a fucking lot.

its way harder to find resources for coding AI then it should be, because the demand seems weirdly rare

Hmm... I see resources for NN, AI, and ML as I go about my 'net travels. Someone should make a sub, I'd probably subscribe and add content. I moderate enough already so I'm not interested in making another sub.
