High-paying AI jobs require a combination of advanced educational qualifications, specialized skills, and industry experience. Professionals who hold advanced degrees from top-tier universities, have expertise in areas like deep learning or natural language processing, and have leadership skills can command salaries at the top end of the range. By understanding these requirements, individuals can better position themselves for success in the AI industry.


AI Career Success = (TE × 0.3) + (BA × 0.2) + (CL × 0.2) + (N × 0.1) + (A × 0.05) + (C × 0.05) + (E × 0.05) + (PS × 0.05) + (CS × 0.05)

Where:

  • TE = Technical Expertise (0-100)

  • BA = Business Acumen (0-100)

  • CL = Continuous Learning (0-100)

  • N = Networking (0-100)

  • A = Adaptability (0-100)

  • C = Creativity (0-100)

  • E = Experience (0-100)

  • PS = Problem-solving skills (0-100)

  • CS = Communication skills (0-100)


This formula assigns weights to each component based on its perceived importance in achieving success in AI careers. The weights can be adjusted based on specific requirements and goals.


To make it more intuitive, you could normalize the score to a range of 0-100:

Success Score = (Success / 100) × 100


This combined formula provides a comprehensive framework for assessing an individual's potential for success in AI careers.

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
