"BP NEEDS 70% FEWER THIRD-PARTY CODERS BECAUSE OF AI: CEO Highest paid jobs about to be hit with a neutron bomb."

This market will resolve according to this source if available: https://www.bls.gov/ooh/computer-and-information-technology/software-developers.htm. If not, will look for best available parallel.

Right now, it lists 1,795,300 jobs as of 2022.

(For the record, it says average salary $130,160 or $62.58 per hour)


This resolves YES if the number listed is at least 1,800,000 jobs at resolution, however lagged that measurement might be at the time.

This resolves NO if the number listed is less than that.
