🗓️ Published: 2025-07-21
📄 Summary: Garrett Lord, CEO of Handshake, reveals a significant change in the AI training and data annotation industry. Initially requiring generalist contractors, the sector now demands highly specialized STEM professionals—including experts in accounting, law, medicine, physics, math, and chemistry—to train cutting-edge AI models. This transition comes amid a surge in demand following Meta's $14.3 billion investment in Scale AI, a major player in the field. Handshake contractors with domain expertise are earning between $100 and $125 per hour, far surpassing the pay rates for generalists on other platforms. With AI labs fiercely protecting their data and techniques, this shift signals a new era where advanced knowledge is crucial for AI development roles.
