šŸ’„If Red States Want Protection From Collapse They Will Have To Build Alternative EconomiesšŸ’„
October 27, 2022
post photo preview

Economic centralization is the ultimate form of organized conspiratorial power, because it allows a small group of people to dictate the terms of trade for a society and therefore dictate the terms of each person’s individual survival.

For example, the Federal Reserve as a banking entity has free rein to assert policy controls that can disrupt the very fabric of the US economy and the buying power of our currency. They can (and do) arbitrarily create trillions of dollars from thin air causing inflation, or arbitrarily raise interest rates and crash stock markets. And according to former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan, theyĀ answer to no one, including the US government.

I have started to see a new narrative being spread within mainstream media platforms as well as alternative media platforms suggesting that the Fed is necessary because it is working to ā€œcounterā€ the agenda of Joe Biden and the Democrats. Some people claim the central bank is ā€œprotectingā€ America from the schemes of the UN and European interests.

This is perhaps the most moronic theory I’ve ever heard, but it makes sense that the central bank and its puppets would be trying to plant the notion that the Fed is some kind of ā€œheroā€ secretly fighting a war on our behalf. The money elites associated with the Fed have inflated perhaps the largest financial bubble in the history of the world over the past 14 years. They did this with bailouts, they did this with QE, they did this with covid pandemic checks and loans, and now the bubble is popping. They know it is popping, because they WANT it to pop.

As I have warned for years, the Fed has been staging a massive controlled demolition of the US economy. Why? Because the US economy must be diminished in order to make way for the ā€œGreat Reset,ā€ a term created by the World Economic Forum to describe an unprecedented paradigm shift in the global economy and how it operates, and a complete upending of society. The end game is openly admitted – AĀ one world digital currency systemĀ and one world governance controlled by aĀ league of corporate partnersĀ working in concert with politicians.

This is not conspiracy theory, this is conspiracy reality. This is undeniable fact.

The Fed does not care about the US economy, its loyalty is to a global agenda and it takes its marching orders from a consortium of banking institutions called theĀ Bank for International SettlementsĀ (BIS). This is how global central banking policies are coordinated to either work in harmony to create artificial stability, or to work in conflict, creating artificial crisis events.

The truth is, the foundations of global governance already exist, but what the establishment does not have is public acceptance and total submission to their authority. What the banks want is to create a crisis so profound that the masses will run to THEM, begging for help. Once a population begs their captors for relief or resolution and it is given, it’s far less likely that the people will revolt against those captors in the future.

Psychologically, the central banks and the establishment elites are trying to create a planetary Stockholm Syndrome, and we are seeing it already with the Federal Reserve being painted as the ā€œshieldā€ holding back the tide of economic ruin that they actually engineered.

The initial stages of the Great Reset have already been launched. With the economic bubble expanded to incredible levels, the Fed is now staging an aggressive implosion using interest rate hikes into economic weakness. There are multiple threats that come with this dynamic:

Stagflation

With stagflation, normal credit market interventions do not necessarily work right away. As we saw recently with the official CPI print rising despite the Fed’s rate hikes, prices are not going to go down that easily. During the last stagflation event 40 years ago, the Fed raised rates to around 20% before prices finally stopped their epic climb, and back then the US did not have $31 trillion in debt nor did it just print over $8 trillions in the span of two years. Rates are likely to go much higher than many people expect.

Treasury Bond Crisis

The Fed replaced foreign investors like Japan and China as the primary buyers of US government Treasury Bonds, and they did so years ago. Now, with the Fed cutting purchases, reducing its balance sheet and raising rates, who is going to buy all that US debt and keep the government funded? Well, the answer is no one. For now, foreign purchases are enough to give a semblance of stability, but with geopolitical tensions rising it’s only a matter of time before countries like China dump their T-bond and dollar holdings completely. Then, the dollar’s world reserve status will come into question and inflation becomes an even greater threat as the trillions of greenbacks held overseas come flooding into the US again.

Stock Market Spiral

Without the Federal Reserve as the backstop fueling corporate share buybacks with cheap money, stocks will continue to slide. They’ll jump every now and then on rumors that the Fed will pivot away from tightening, and when the Fed doesn’t, stocks will start dropping again. Without stimulus and near zero rates there is no hope for equities beyond the occasional jawboning.

The Fed has the ability to slow down or speed up all of the conditions above, and so far they appear to be speeding things up. We obviously can’t rely on the Biden Administration to do anything about these problems; in all likelihood Biden and his handlers are joyful in the prospect of the inevitable calamity. No one in government is trying to do anything legitimate to stop the landslide and no one is trying to prepare Americans for the consequences.

In fact, Americans are being told there are no consequences. Thus, it’s up to individuals to prepare and warn their friends and family, but what about a larger organized response?

Despite numerous claims that conservatives would ā€œdo nothingā€ to stop the rise of medical fascism in the name of the covid pandemic, almost half the states in the US stood their ground against the mandates and the push for vaccine passports. If this had not happened, America would look like China does today with endless lockdowns and draconian tracking apps. I don’t think enough people understand just how close we came to losing every freedom we have left – We were on the doorstep of an Orwellian hell, and probably civil war.

The red state defiance of covid restrictions represented an organized action at the state and interstate level. What if these states did the same thing in the face of the economic crisis?

Without organization at the state level to create alternatives to the mainstream economy the plight of the public becomes much more daunting and dangerous. Rather than trying to start completely from scratch, there are solutions that can be pursued at the state level to help mitigate the disaster.

Currency Alternatives

States like Texas, Utah and Louisiana (currently Dem controlled) all have legislation in place to utilize gold and silver as legal tender. Such efforts need to be expanded to as many states as possible, and the list of alternatives needs to grow. Gold, silver, copper, and other commodities like oil, electricity, wheat and grains could be used to back a state recognized currency system. Is it constitutional? Not technically, but the federal government violated the constitutional money creation mandate over a century ago when they allowed the institution of the Federal Reserve. The system is already broken.

If states were to offer commodity backed currencies in parallel with the dollar, then they could actually stave off price inflation and possibly reverse it. This can’t be achieved by only one or two states, though. It would have to be organized among multiple states with multiple trade agreements in place.

State Banks

North Dakota has its own state run bank that provides credit opportunities specifically to ND locals and ND businesses. It has operated successfully for decades. Why has no other state adopted this model? Why should we rely on banks that are all tied back to corporate conglomerates that want to destroy us? State banks are the answer to the problem of leftists and globalists using corporate banks as a weapon against conservatives and liberty activists.

Localized Trade Alternatives

States should be utilizing the resources within their own borders to generate real jobs (rather than precarious and temporary service sector jobs) and economic prosperity. Why are states and citizens in those states allowing the federal government under Biden to dictate the terms of how they grow their economies?

Leftists will claim that resource management needs to be supervised by federal agencies, but why? These people have consistently proven themselves to be incompetent and destructive. Why should they be trusted to control our ability to expand in our own states?

Conservation and intelligent handling of state resources should not be relegated to bureaucrats who live outside of those states and who care nothing about the citizens of those states.

State Incentives For Industry

The vast majority of retail goods purchased by US citizens are made outside the US. It is a simple matter of profit incentives involving cheap labor overseas. But, what if there were big tax reductions for companies that manufacture in America? What if state banks offered easier credit to companies that build factories within that state’s borders and hire American workers at a reasonable wage? It can be done in the US – It’s been done in the past. If we don’t restart domestic production, our country is doomed to remain dependent on international corporations and foreign entities that do not have our best interests in mind.

The only hope any state has to weather the coming storm is to localize production and manage their resources to kick-start trade. Local production would act as a redundancy should the mainstream economy collapse (which it will). States don’t need Biden’s permission to make this happen. They don;t need the Federal Reserve’s permission either. They can and should take action now before it’s too late.

🚨 Jensen Huang, founder & CEO of Nvidia—the largest company in the world—publicly validated Bittensor, and nearly all of crypto is STILL fast asleep on $TAO šŸ˜“šŸ‘‡

When the king of AI hardware speaks, you listen. On the All-In Podcast, Jensen highlighted Bittensor’s ability to train large-scale models across a decentralized network of idle GPUs, calling it a modern version of "Folding@Home" and a "crazy technical achievement". šŸ§ āš”ļø

Here is why this is massive:

• Nvidia builds the raw compute āš™ļø

• Big Tech builds the centralized walled gardens šŸ°

• Bittensor ($TAO) builds the open, permissionless marketplace for global machine intelligence 🌐

While crypto Twitter is busy chasing daily meme coin rotations and short-term leverage plays, the key architect of the AI boom just gave a nod to decentralized AI infrastructure.

šŸ’”$TAO isn't just another altcoin—it’s an incentive layer for open-source AI models. Most traders won't connect the dots until the rest of the market catches up. Don't sleep on what's being built here. šŸ’ŽšŸš€

šŸ¤– AI Won't Destroy Jobs—It Will Create a Labor Shortage! šŸ“‰

While most headlines focus on AI-driven displacement, Groq Founder and CEO Jonathan Ross offers a fascinating, contrarian perspective. He argues that instead of mass unemployment, we are heading toward a massive labor shortage driven by three tectonic shifts:

1. Massive Deflationary Pressure: Efficiency gains from automated farming, robotics, and streamlined supply chains will drive down the cost of everyday essentials—from coffee to housing—meaning people will ultimately need less money to thrive. ā˜•ļøšŸ 

2. The Great Economic Opt-Out: As living costs drop and productivity skyrockets, humans will choose to work fewer hours, fewer days a week, and retire much earlier because their lifestyles will be easier to support. ā³šŸŒ“

3. Unimaginable New Industries: Just as agriculture dropped from 98% of the US workforce a century ago to just 2%—paving the way for entirely new careers like software development and content creation—tomorrow's jobs are literally ...

Heinz Hopf discovered this in 1931. Roger Penrose called it "an element of the architecture of our world.' Eric Weinstein brought it up on Joe Rogan - and the silence in the room said everything.
The Hopf fibration maps a 4D hypersphere onto a regular sphere using circles that never intersect but each links through every other exactly once. It shows up in at least 8 areas of physics - including the Bloch sphere geometry that every qubit in a quantum computer lives on.

🚨 JPMorgan’s criticism of the CLARITY Act is fueling a fresh power struggle over who gets to write America’s crypto rules 🚨

A new clash is emerging between legacy finance and crypto legislation after JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon reportedly warned that the CLARITY Act could let crypto firms offer bank-like products without bank-level oversight. The dispute is quickly turning into a larger fight over regulation, competitiveness, and who controls the future architecture of digital finance in the United States.

šŸ”‘ Key points

šŸ”¹ Jamie Dimon reportedly called the CLARITY Act a threat to the financial system, arguing it could allow crypto firms to offer yield-like products while avoiding the capital, reserve, and oversight burdens traditional banks face.

šŸ”¹ Senator Cynthia Lummis pushed back publicly, framing the issue as a global strategic race and warning that if the U.S. does not set digital asset standards, other powers will.

šŸ”¹ The core tension is whether the bill creates legitimate regulatory clarity or simply opens the door to regulatory arbitrage for crypto platforms operating outside the traditional banking...

🧠 TAO holders may be watching the wrong number: Bittensor’s real test is external revenue 🧠

TAO is trading roughly 70% below its 2024 peak, but Bittensor’s underlying economics have changed significantly through the halving, dTAO, Root Reborn, emission gates, and cross-chain expansion.

šŸ”‘ Key points

šŸ”¹ First halving completed: Block rewards fell from 1 TAO to 0.5 TAO, reducing daily issuance to approximately 3,600 TAO.

šŸ”¹ dTAO created subnet economies: Each subnet now issues an alpha token that trades against TAO, with market activity influencing emissions.

šŸ”¹ Strong markets attract emissions: Higher alpha prices can draw more capital and increase a subnet’s emissions share.

šŸ”¹ Weak subnets face pressure: Inactive or low-demand subnets can lose emissions through burn adjustments and emission gates.

šŸ”¹ Root Reborn reduced automatic selling: Alpha dividends owed to root stakers now accumulate in validator-linked baskets instead of being automatically sold for TAO.

šŸ”¹ Selling pressure was ...

Bitcoin broke above $80,000 as a sharp short squeeze forced bearish traders to close positions, accelerating the rally and pushing the market toward higher technical targets.

šŸ”‘ Key points

šŸ”¹ $80,000 resistance broken: Bitcoin moved above a major psychological and technical level.

šŸ”¹ $260 million in shorts liquidated: Forced buybacks added momentum as traders betting against BTC were removed from the market.

šŸ”¹ Momentum is accelerating: The breakout followed a period of consolidation and renewed buying pressure.

šŸ”¹ Leverage amplified the move: Liquidations can push prices higher quickly, but they also create conditions for sharp reversals.

šŸ”¹ $84,000 is the first target: Traders are watching the next resistance zone around the mid-$80,000 range.

šŸ”¹ $88,000 could follow: A sustained move above $84,000 may open the path toward the upper-$80,000 region.

šŸ¤–Can Decentralized AI Stop Big Tech from Owning the Future of Robotics?šŸ¤–
The race to build the future of robotics is no longer just about robots. It's about who controls the intelligence behind them.
Ā 
Over the last three years, a small group of companies has emerged as the backbone of the AI revolution. Microsoft provides cloud infrastructure. NVIDIA supplies the chips. Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and others develop the models. Together, they control much of the compute, data, and software stack powering modern AI.
Ā 
Now that AI is moving into the physical world, many are asking a bigger question:
Ā 
Will these same companies end up controlling robotics too?
Ā 
It's a valid concern.
Ā 
The latest generation of robots relies on enormous amounts of compute, simulation, training data, and foundation models. Many robotics startups today are built on infrastructure provided by large technology companies. NVIDIA's Omniverse is becoming a key simulation environment for robot training. Microsoft Azure is powering the training of robotics foundation models. Physical AI startups increasingly depend on hyperscale cloud infrastructure to train and deploy intelligent systems. Recent partnerships across the industry show just how central Big Tech has become to robotics development.
But while Big Tech is building the highways, another movement is trying to ensure it doesn't own every destination.
Ā 
That movement is decentralized AI.
Ā 
Why Decentralized AI Exists
Ā 
The idea behind decentralized AI is simple. Instead of a handful of companies owning the models, compute infrastructure, data pipelines, and intelligence networks, these resources are distributed across thousands of participants.
Ā 
This means anyone can contribute compute, contribute models, validate outputs and can participate.
The most visible example today is the decentralized AI network known as Bittensor (@bittensor). The network has evolved into a large ecosystem of specialized AI markets called subnets, where participants compete to provide useful machine intelligence and are rewarded based on performance. Rather than relying on a single company, intelligence is generated and validated by a distributed network of miners and validators.
Ā 
Think of it as an attempt to build an open marketplace for AI instead of a world where intelligence is rented from a few centralized providers.
Ā 
Why This Matters for Robotics
Ā 
Robotics has a unique problem. Unlike chatbots, robots operate in the physical world. They need to perceive environments, make decisions, move safely and they need to learn continuously.
Ā 
The challenge is that collecting and training on real-world robotic data is incredibly expensive. That's one reason large companies have such an advantage. They can afford the compute, simulation environments, and data infrastructure needed to train robotics models at scale.
Ā 
This is where decentralized systems become interesting.
Ā 
Instead of one company collecting all the data and training all the models, decentralized networks could allow thousands of contributors to participate in building robotic intelligence.
Ā 
Imagine a future where:
  • Warehouse robots contribute operational data.
  • Delivery robots contribute navigation data.
  • Factory robots contribute manipulation data.
  • Developers contribute models.
  • Validators evaluate performance.
The resulting intelligence becomes a shared network rather than a proprietary asset.
Ā 
That vision is beginning to emerge.
Ā 
Bittensor's Move Toward Physical AI
Ā 
While many people associate Bittensor (@bittensor) with language models and AI services, parts of the ecosystem are increasingly exploring embodied intelligence and robotics.
Ā 
One example is Kinitro, a subnet focused on incentivizing the training and evaluation of embodied AI systems. The goal is to create competitive environments where developers build robotic intelligence and are rewarded based on performance.
Ā 
The broader Bittensor ecosystem has also expanded into compute marketplaces, distributed inference systems, bandwidth infrastructure, and AI coordination layers that could eventually support robotics workloads. Several subnets now focus on decentralized compute, confidential inference, data transfer, and model training, critical components for future robotic systems.
Ā 
In other words, the pieces are starting to appear.
Ā 
Not a decentralized robot network yet.
Ā 
But the infrastructure that could support one.
Ā 
Beyond Bittensor: The Rise of Physical AI Networks
Ā 
Bittensor isn't alone.
Ā 
Across the industry, researchers and builders are experimenting with decentralized approaches to physical AI.
Ā 
New research published in 2026 introduced the concept of DAO-enabled decentralized physical AI, or DePAI. The idea combines robotics, decentralized infrastructure, AI models, governance systems, and human oversight into a single framework. Instead of centralized control, robots and physical infrastructure could be coordinated through transparent rules and distributed ownership models.
Ā 
At the same time, developers are exploring decentralized operating systems for robots that allow machines to communicate directly with each other and with distributed compute resources. These architectures are designed to make robotic systems more resilient and less dependent on a single cloud provider.
Ā 
The goal is not simply decentralization for its own sake.
Ā 
The goal is resilience.
Ā 
If one server fails, the system continues.
Ā 
If one company disappears, the network survives.
Ā 
If one participant leaves, innovation continues.
Ā 
But Here's the Reality
Ā 
Decentralized AI faces the same challenge every decentralized technology faces.
Ā 
Big Tech has resources. A lot of resources.
Ā 
Training advanced robotics models requires enormous compute budgets, sophisticated simulation environments, access to specialized hardware, and vast amounts of real-world data.
Ā 
That's why many robotics startups still partner with major cloud providers and AI companies. It's often the fastest path to deployment.
Ā 
And there are legitimate concerns about whether decentralized networks can maintain quality, reliability, and security at the scale required for industrial robotics. Even researchers studying decentralized AI systems have highlighted risks around concentration, incentives, governance, and network security.
Ā 
The challenge isn't just decentralizing intelligence.
Ā 
It's decentralizing intelligence while maintaining performance.
Ā 
That's much harder.
Ā 
The Most Likely Outcome
Ā 
The future probably won't be fully centralized. And it probably won't be fully decentralized either. Instead, we're likely heading toward a hybrid model.
Ā 
Large technology companies will continue providing chips, cloud infrastructure, simulation platforms, and foundational research.
Ā 
At the same time, decentralized AI networks will emerge as alternative coordination layers where intelligence, data, and economic value can be shared more openly.
Ā 
The companies building robots may use NVIDIA hardware.
Ā 
Train on Azure.
Ā 
Run foundation models from OpenAI.
Ā 
But they may also participate in decentralized data networks, decentralized compute markets, and decentralized intelligence protocols.
Ā 
The future of robotics could end up looking less like a monopoly and more like an ecosystem.
Ā 
The Bigger Question
Ā 
The real question isn't whether decentralized AI can eliminate Big Tech.
Ā 
It can't.
Ā 
At least not anytime soon.
Ā 
The real question is whether decentralized AI can prevent a future where a handful of companies control every robot, every model, every dataset, and every decision made by the machines operating around us.
Ā 
As robots become workers, assistants, delivery drivers, factory operators, and even economic agents, that question becomes increasingly important.
Ā 
Because the battle for the future of robotics is no longer about hardware.
Ā 
It's about who owns the intelligence.
Ā 
And that battle is just getting started.
Ā

Navigating the world of blockchain 🧭
Navigating the world of blockchain can feel like learning a completely foreign language. Between technical jargon and fast-moving Web3 terminology, getting started can be overwhelming.

Whether you are exploring digital assets, building on-chain, or simply trying to understand decentralized technology, here is your foundational glossary of essential blockchain terms every beginner should know.

šŸ›ļø 1. Core Architecture: The Base Layer

  • Blockchain: A distributed, immutable digital ledger that records transactions across a peer-to-peer network of computers. Once data is written to a block and added to the chain, it cannot be altered without altering all subsequent blocks.
  • Block: A collection of verified transactions grouped together. Once filled, the block is cryptographically linked to the previous one, forming a chronological "chain."
  • Node: An individual computer connected to a blockchain network that helps validate transactions, store ledger data, and maintain network consensus.
  • Consensus Mechanism: The set of rules and algorithms that network nodes use to agree on the validity of transactions.

    • Proof of Work (PoW): Requires miners to solve complex mathematical puzzles using computational power (e.g., Bitcoin).
    • Proof of Stake (PoS): Requires validators to lock up ("stake") native tokens as collateral to participate in block validation (e.g., Ethereum).

šŸ”‘ 2. Ownership & Security: Wallets and Keys

  • Public Key (Address): An alphanumeric string that acts like your bank account number or email address. It is safe to share publicly so others can send you digital assets.
  • Private Key: A secret cryptographic passphrase or key that grants full access and control over your wallet assets. Never share your private key or seed phrase with anyone.
  • Seed Phrase (Recovery Phrase): A sequence of 12 to 24 random words generated when you set up a wallet. It acts as the master backup key to restore your wallet and access your funds on any device.
  • Hot Wallet vs. Cold Wallet:

    • Hot Wallet: A software-based crypto wallet connected to the internet (e.g., browser extensions, mobile apps), making it convenient for frequent transactions but higher risk.
    • Cold Wallet: An offline hardware device (e.g., Ledger, Coldcard) designed to isolate private keys from internet-connected threats.

āš™ļø 3. Execution & Functionality: Smart Contracts and Apps

  • Smart Contract: Self-executing code stored on a blockchain that automatically enforces agreement terms once predetermined conditions are met—eliminating the need for intermediaries.
  • dApp (Decentralized Application): Applications built on top of a blockchain network that run via smart contracts rather than centralized cloud servers.
  • Gas Fees: Network transaction fees paid to validators or miners to cover the computational energy required to process actions on a blockchain.
  • Layer 1 vs. Layer 2:

    • Layer 1 (L1): The underlying primary blockchain network (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana) that handles base security and finality.
    • Layer 2 (L2): Secondary frameworks or companion networks built on top of an L1 to increase transaction speeds and lower gas fees (e.g., Arbitrum, Optimism, Base).

šŸ’° 4. Financial & Market Concepts

  • Tokenomics: The economic design, supply dynamics, utility, and distribution model of a cryptocurrency or token project.
  • DeFi (Decentralized Finance): Financial services—such as lending, borrowing, trading, and earning interest—built on smart contracts without traditional banks or financial intermediaries.
  • Liquidity: The ease with which an asset can be bought or sold in a market without significantly impacting its price.
  • DYOR (Do Your Own Research): A foundational golden rule in the Web3 space reminding users to independently verify technical code, whitepapers, and team backgrounds before making any capital commitments.

šŸ’” Quick Cheat Sheet

"Not your keys, not your coins."

If you do not hold the private keys or seed phrase to your digital wallet, you do not truly own the assets inside it—a centralized entity or exchange does. Always prioritize security first as you explore the space.

AI Is Coming for Your Job Title

Artificial intelligence may or may not take your job, but it has already broken into the human resources department and vandalized the org chart.

The evidence is all overĀ LinkedIn, where perfectly serviceable occupations now arrive wearing titles such as ā€œforward-deployed and agentic AI architect.ā€ That person may be building sophisticated software. They may also be helping a chatbot remember what happened three prompts ago. Either way, somebody approved the business cards.

The expanding AI lexicon offers a useful counterpoint to the darker debate about technology and employment. Most discussion centers on how many jobs AI will eliminate. Hiring data presents a more complicated picture that includes a weak overall labor market containing a small but rapidly growing neighborhood of AI-related work.

Indeed Hiring LabĀ found that the number of postings onĀ IndeedĀ mentioning AI surged 134% from its February 2020 level by the end of 2025, even as total postings stood only 6% above that benchmark. AI appeared in a record 4.2% of Indeed postings in December.

AI, in other words, is not merely changing work. It is adding syllables to it.

The Titles Employers Actually Want

The undisputed champion isĀ AI engineer, which ranked No. 1 onĀ LinkedIn’s 2026 Jobs on the Rise list. The ranking, based on growth during the previous three years, also highlighted AI consultants and strategists, AI and machine-learning researchers and data annotators.

The title is popular partly because it is wonderfully accommodating. An AI engineer might build applications around large language models, connect corporate data to an AI system, improve model performance or spend Thursday afternoon persuading a customer service bot not to offer refunds for products the company doesn’t sell.

Indeed’s data showed the terminology spreading beyond Silicon Valley. Nearly 45% of data and analytics postings contained an AI-related term at the end of 2025, along with roughly 15% of marketing postings and 9% of human resources listings. A more recent Indeed analysisĀ reportedĀ by Business Insider found that the number of frequently advertised job titles explicitly referencing AI rose from 264 in 2022 to 822 in the first quarter of 2026. Nearly two-thirds were outside traditional technology fields.

That produces titles such as AI marketing manager, AI learning specialist, responsible AI counsel and AI transformation lead. These are not always new occupations. Frequently, they are familiar jobs that have discovered a highly effective rƩsumƩ keyword.

LinkedIn data cited by theĀ World Economic ForumĀ estimated that AI investment has supported 1.3 million positions, including AI engineers, data annotators and forward-deployed engineers, plus more than 600,000 AI-enabled data center jobs. The server racks, unlike the chatbots, still need electricians.

The Jobs With the Science-Fiction Salaries

At the upper end, AI has created a compensation market that resembles professional sports, except the competitors wear hoodies and discuss inference latency.

AĀ Syracuse University reviewĀ put chief AI officer compensation between $200,000 and more than $500,000, while specialized roles can exceed $400,000 after bonuses and equity. Frontier research engineers, AI infrastructure specialists and engineers who can train or deploy advanced models command some of the largest packages.

Then there is theĀ forward-deployed engineer, an oldĀ PalantirĀ title that the AI boom has placed on a rocket sled. These engineers embed with customers, translating an executive’s desire to ā€œdo something with AIā€ into software that works.Ā The Next WebĀ reported that Indeed postings for the role were about 19 times higher in January than a year earlier.

AĀ CTO guideĀ from the blog Signal Through the Noise placed forward-deployed engineer compensation between $238,000 and $700,000, research-engineering packages as high as $1.4 million and chief AI officer compensation above $1 million in some cases. It also made a less flattering observation: Many lavishly differentiated titles describe the same three basic functions. People build AI products, train models or keep the infrastructure from catching fire.

The Department of Unnecessary Titles

AI has created some genuinely new work.Ā Evals engineersĀ design tests to determine whether models perform reliably.Ā AI red teamersĀ try to make systems fail before customers do.Ā Model behavior engineersĀ study why an AI system responds as it does.Ā AI governance leadersĀ manage risks involving data, bias, security and regulation.

Other titles seem to have escaped from a brainstorming retreat.

There is theĀ Claude Evangelist, whose mission apparently combines product education with the traditional duties of an apostle. There areĀ vibe coders, who build software by describing what they want and accepting AI-generated code with varying degrees of supervision. ā€œVibe engineerā€ is the more respectable version, roughly equivalent to putting on a blazer before asking the machine to fix the login page.

ā€œContext engineerā€ is a real discipline involving the data, instructions, memory and tools supplied to AI models. ā€œPrompt engineer,ā€ once advertised as a possible six-figure profession for gifted chatbot whisperers, is increasingly treated as one skill inside a broader AI role.

The CTO guide also identified ā€œbuilder,ā€ ā€œAI-native developer,ā€ ā€œRAG engineer,ā€ ā€œagentic AI engineerā€ and ā€œprincipal agentic GenAI forward-deployed context architect,ā€ the last of which appears to require both technical proficiency and exceptional lung capacity.

Has AI created entirely new jobs? Absolutely. Some occupations, including AI safety, evaluation and model governance, exist because modern generative systems introduced new technical and business problems. However, many job titles are old jobs with fresh vocabulary, higher salary bands and a sudden aversion to the words ā€œsoftware developer.ā€

That may be the safest prediction about AI and employment. The machines will automate some tasks, generate others and force companies to rethink the division of labor. Before any of that is settled, however, corporate America will form a steering committee, appoint a chief agentic transformation evangelist and schedule a meeting to determine what that person does.
