Artificial Intelligence is becoming more powerful, fast, and integrated into human lives by the day, with no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
Companies are utilizing AI to great success to increase productivity and profits, with 92% of large companies utilizing AI reporting returns on their AI investments.
AI also has the power to ease the stress felt by workers by eliminating menial tasks, in turn giving them the ability to focus on more thoughtful areas of their job. For example, AssemblyAI is a remote company that builds powerful AI models for developers, startups, and companies to transcribe, understand, and organize audio data. This simple but time consuming task can be done far more efficiently by their API, allowing humans to focus on the work that really matters.
The capabilities of AI seem nearly limitless, as demonstrated by Sanctuary AI, a company setting out to create human-like intelligence in robots. They aim to tackle labor shortages facing many large companies with the help of robots capable of performing manual labor and thinking like people.
Some critics are concerned of the dangers of creating AI that could become intelligent enough to reach some form of sentience; that’s where a company like OpenAI comes in. They are a research company dedicated to finding and deploying a safe path towards artificial general intelligence. They want an AI that benefits humanity, with safety and human needs at its core, not profit.
If you want to work in an industry that will play a large part in shaping the future of other industries and all of humanity, here are 5 AI companies hiring now.

Security in the Skies: 5 High Altitude Balloon and Satellite Startups Hiring Now
Nearly nine decades after the Hindenburg disaster, some speculate we’re entering the Second Age of the Balloon. “As all these objects fall, a new space race is rising,” Vox (https://www.vox.com/world/2023/2/7/23588464/suspect-spy-china-balloon-sputnik-moment-space-race) proclaimed. Tens of thousands of balloons float into near-space every year, and the numbers rise every year. The National Weather Service alone launches around 60k high-flying balloons each year. The Pentagon spent nearly $4B over the past two years on its own high altitude balloons, according to Politico (https://www.politico.com/news/2022/07/05/u-s-militarys-newest-weapon-against-china-and-russia-hot-air-00043860). Why the interest in such old-school tech? “They’re cheap, easy to transport, can be fielded in large numbers and are payload agnostic,” industry expert George Howell wrote. Tucson, Arizona-based World View (https://spacenews.com/world-view-emphasizes-remote-sensing-as-it-prepares-to-go-public/), a stratospheric ballooning company, last month announced plans to go public via SPAC merger. The company develops a “stratollite” that provides high-res imagery for extended periods. (The company also offer space tourism.) Colorado-based Urban Sky (/company/urban-sky) is creating what it claims as the first ever reusable stratospheric balloon. Called “micro-balloons,” they’re the size of a VW bus and can hover in near space to collect data over urban areas. Company founder Jared Leidich (https://www.smithsonianmag.com/air-space-magazine/04_fm2017-alan-eustaces-jump-1-180961678/) has some chops in this arena, having designed the space suit used in the world record space dive in 2014 via a balloon at nearly 136k feet. Near Space Labs (/company/nearspacelabs) invites people to “step inside a new way of thinking about all things geospatial imaging (https://nearspacelabs.com/blog/).” The company's high-altitude balloons that carry a small, autonomous robot called Swifty to capture the world around them at 60k to 85k feet in the air. The company says it’s done zero carbon emissions and recently launched (https://www.zdnet.com/article/near-space-labs-provide-free-high-resolution-imagery-to-universities-nonprofits/) a program to make its high-resolution Earth imagery available to universities and nonprofits for free. Sounds fascinating, right? Luckily, with a new wave of space technology, comes a brand new, cutting-edge wave of jobs. Check out 5 top startups aiming skywards and hiring now.
