Nvidia CEO says AI boom will create 'six-figure' construction jobs

Core Insights - The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is driving the largest infrastructure build-out in human history, significantly impacting job creation and salaries in construction trades [1][2][9]. Group 1: Infrastructure and Job Creation - The AI technology boom is leading to a substantial increase in jobs related to construction trades, including plumbers, electricians, and network technicians [2][5]. - Salaries for construction trade workers involved in building chip factories and AI-related infrastructure have nearly doubled, reaching six-figure salaries [2][5]. Group 2: AI Infrastructure Layers - AI infrastructure consists of a five-layer model, starting with energy, followed by chips, cloud services, AI models, and finally the application layer [6][9]. - The investment required for this infrastructure build-out is estimated to be in the trillions of dollars, which is deemed sensible for processing the necessary contexts for AI applications [10].
