This chart from Trump’s AI Czar, David Sacks, shows that hiring is RISING in the industry that has most aggressively adopted AI: software engineering.
Why? Sacks explains:
AI has dramatically lowered the cost of writing code, so it’s now being used across far more businesses, applications, and use cases.
We’re at the beginning of a massive productivity boom driven by the proliferation of bespoke software throughout the entire economy.
Coding has been AI’s breakout use case this year. The fact that it’s increased demand for software engineers — rather than decreased it — should call into question the entire “AI will cause mass job loss” narrative.
Our advice to young people who want to get ahead in the 21st century: learn data structures and how to code.
