🛹 A ride to remember: This is so great. After a bad skateboarding crash, Joey called an Uber instead of 911. His driver, Beni, not only took him to the hospital, but he stayed by Joey’s side all day. The two became lifelong friends. “That one act of kindness,” Joey said, “helped me see the good in the world again.” Let’s see a Waymo do that.

I know that many of you are afraid that AI is going to take your job. And you might be right.
The 2025 Global State of AI at Work report just confirmed what we’re all sensing. AI isn’t the future. It is now. But before you panic, let me offer a new way to look at this.
Instead of fearing what’s coming, maybe it’s time to think outside the box. Nearly three out of five companies say they’re hiring for AI-related roles this year. And most of these jobs don’t require a computer science degree or even coding skills.
So, what are they looking for? Real people with real-world experience. They want folks who can think critically, solve problems and communicate clearly. That might sound a lot like … you.
Here are some of the highest-paying, fastest-growing AI roles right now. Let’s dig in.
🧠 Prompt Engineers
💵 $175K to $250K+
These are the “AI whisperers.” Their job is to write the right prompts, so tools like ChatGPT give useful, accurate and smart responses. You don’t need to know how to code, but you do need to be a great communicator, logical thinker and problem-solver. Bonus: English majors, writers and marketers often pivot into this role.
📝 AI Trainers (or Evaluators)
💵 $90K to $150K
Ever wonder how chatbots learn to sound polite or helpful? That’s the trainer’s job. They score AI responses, tweak tone and accuracy, and help refine what the AI “knows.” This is a great role for detail-oriented folks, even part-timers and remote workers.
