🔨 What Are Non-Technical Roles?
AI isn't just engineers, computer scientists and dudes who spent 5 years on their Masters Degree in AI & Machine Learning (thankfully). Luckily, for the non-technical (such as myself), there’s hoards of other jobs that both pay well and have you on the precipice of development in AI:
Product Managers: They help define the direction of AI products and work with technical teams to make it happen.
Sales and Marketing Professionals: They help sell AI products or services and market them to the right audience.
Technical Writers: They write documentation, guides, and tutorials that make AI technologies accessible to others.
Project Managers: They oversee AI projects, ensuring they're completed on time and within budget.
Ghostwriters: This is how I got my start within the field of AI. DM huge creators and ask to create content for free. Move towards a payment model.
Newsletter Operators: This is exactly what I’m doing right now. Find a niche, cover it better than anyone else.
