Nvidia's CEO ensures that AI will make electricians and bricklayers some of the best-paid jobs.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang predicts that electricians, plumbers, construction workers, and steelworkers will have abundant job opportunities due to the growth of artificial intelligence. This is because their skills will be needed to build and maintain infrastructure such as data centers, semiconductor factories, and computer systems.

Huang estimates that many of these workers can earn over $100,000 annually, especially in countries like the US where there is a shortage of skilled labor. McKinsey projects that the US will need 130,000 additional electricians, 240,000 construction workers, and 150,000 construction supervisors by 2030 to meet the demand. Nvidia plans to invest $100,000 million in OpenAI to fund data centers with Nvidia's AI processors.
