But look at what those jobs actually are: electricians, HVAC techs, equipment makers, data-centre technicians. People building and running the buildings, not people using the software. Only about one per cent of professional jobs are AI jobs. That matters, because a number like this tracks how much money companies are spending, not how good the technology is. If the models stopped improving tomorrow, hiring would keep going for a year because the contracts are already signed. If the models kept improving but three big spenders cut their budgets, the hiring would stop cold. So the figure is a spending indicator, not proof the technology works. And the people using it to say there&rsquo;s no problem are missing that the office jobs going quiet and the construction jobs booming are two different labour markets with two different sets of people in them.</p>
