Bullish AI Growth in the UK Beats US, Canada and Australia
According to fresh figures from Indeed, the UK’s artificial‑intelligence scene is sprinting ahead of its global competitors. The nation is on track to become the world’s leading AI technology hub.
Why the UK is So Good at AI
- Rapid increase in AI job postings – almost tripled over the past three years.
- High demand for specialist roles like data scientists and machine‑learning engineers.
- Average salaries far above the UK mean: £56,385 for data scientists and £54,617 for ML engineers.
- Demand for AI skills far exceeds the supply of qualified talent.
Daily AI Touchpoints
From the smart speakers in our living rooms to driverless cars and facial‑recognition apps, most of us interact with AI every day – often without even noticing it.
Job Numbers that Shock
In 2018, the UK had 1,300 AI positions advertised per million jobs on Indeed – roughly double Canada’s figure and more than 20 % higher than the US.
Finding Talent is a Challenge
- Only 1 in 6 AI openings hires the right candidate.
- Number of AI job seekers has doubled since 2015, but employers still run out of qualified people.
