Will AI Replace Tech Jobs
Before You Get One?
It's the right question to ask. Here's what's actually happening: AI is automating some tasks, but it's also driving the largest build-out of networks, data centers, and security infrastructure in history. The IT roles that build and protect that infrastructure aren't going away. They're growing.
AI Runs on Infrastructure
Every AI system depends on networks, servers, and security. Skilled IT professionals are the foundation it all runs on.
AI Creates New Security Demands
Protecting AI systems from new threats is one of the fastest-growing areas in cybersecurity.
Zero to AI Engineer
A new AI career track is in development — built on the same hands-on, military-inspired approach as our existing programs.
