While salaries in tech have always been pretty comfortable, AI-related roles are really upping the ante, according to a new report from Bizreport.

By analyzing job specs from eight different websites, and combining this with data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the report shows in hard figures just how much AI is reshaping the American job market.

Not only do AI-related jobs offer 78% higher pay than other occupations, the difference is most notable in more junior positions.

Those beginning AI-related jobs at entry level were offered salaries 128% higher than other occupations, and this fell to 58% for mid-level and 47% for senior roles.

Clearly, there is strong demand and value placed on AI skills, but sometimes comparing salaries for tech and non-tech roles is like comparing apples and oranges.

Widening Pay Gap

The report shows the pay gap between tech jobs and other roles has widened by 36% due to AI, and in 2024, there will be potentially 131,000 AI-related jobs in the computer science industry.

The AI business is booming and both graduates and more established employees would do well to upskill.

According to Lisa Heneghan, Global Chief Digital Officer atKPMG International,

“Generative AI is an increasingly hot topic in boardrooms, with leaders looking to better understand its potential and how to implement this technology in their business strategies. The challenge is spending the money in the right places, and having the right skills to fully exploit the opportunities it presents.”

CEOs are recognising AI’s potential in the workplace, and 70% of 1,325 surveyed across 11 markets say they are investing heavily in generative AI to maintain a competitive edge for the future.
