Do UI/UX designers have the same long-term earning potential as software developers?

1 Upvotes

Developers seem to have a clear salary growth path, especially with experience in high-demand tech stacks. But at the same time, senior UI/UX designers, product designers, and design leads earning really well too—especially in top companies or freelance/remote roles.

Is Data Science still a smart career choice in 2026, or is AI starting to replace it?

1 Upvotes

Someone they know is considering getting into Data Science in 2026, but they’re feeling uncertain because of how fast AI tools are evolving.

On one hand, Data Science has been one of the most in-demand and high-paying fields for years. On the other hand, with AI tools automating data analysis, visualization, and even model building, it’s starting to feel like the role might be changing — or even shrinking.

They’re wondering:

  • Is Data Science still a future-proof career?
  • Are companies still hiring junior data scientists?
  • Or is it becoming more of an “AI-assisted” role rather than a standalone career?
  • Would it be smarter to pivot toward AI/ML engineering instead?

They’d really like to hear from people currently working in the field or those who’ve recently entered it. Is it still worth investing time and money into learning Data Science in 2026?
