For years, the conversation around artificial intelligence has focused on the jobs it could eliminate. But another story is unfolding at the same time. During this episode of TechMobility Topics, we examine how AI is fueling demand for skilled trades as new data centers, electric grid expansions, and infrastructure projects create opportunities for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, construction workers, and other essential trades. We explore why these hands-on careers remain difficult to automate, how they can provide strong earnings without the burden of college debt, and why AI may end up creating as many opportunities as it disrupts—for workers with the right skills.
