alt Hacker News> Demand for software engineers in the Bay Area has fallen 42% since 2022, according to Lightcast, a labor-market analytics firm. Jobs tied to AI-related IT and computer science, meanwhile, have jumped 37%.
How much of this is just everything IT-related being rebranded as AI?
To be fair, 42% decrease in one bucket may not match 37% increase in another bucket in absolute numbers.
