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. '
