More than 250 Denver job openings this January required AI skills, a new analysis found.
- That's enough to rank Denver 20th out of the top 75 largest metro areas for available AI jobs, according to estimates from the University of Maryland's UMD-LinkUp AI Maps.
Why it matters: Local leaders want Denver to become a magnet for AI companies. The city hosted the nation's first major city-led AI summit last fall in a push to plant a flag in the new frontier.
The bottom line: Amid lots of consternation about the emerging technology taking people's jobs, a growing number of workers are landing new roles working with it.
