A recruiting firm emailed me this week about a 12 month design contract at a top AI company fully remote, paying $520k. The job is to work directly with the researcher leading design, to teach the model design taste. I know a ton of designers would jump on this with no hesitation. And I cant lie and pretend $520k isnt pretty damn appealing, but it hits a little different when you see it presented in this way. A nice 12 month payout to help a model potentially permanently eliminate design roles… I know theyll fill these positions fast too, so I guess well see where things shape up 12 months from now
