Are ML engineers paid more than SWEs? /u/livLongAndRed CSCQ protests reddit

Are ML engineers in big tech companies paid more than SWEs that are at the same level and years of experience?

I am considering if I should invest my time in learning ML/AI or should I try to go deeper into my current area of work like distributed systems. I want to know the current situation regarding salaries and is there more upcoming headcount in AI/ML than SWE roles?

Any info you have regarding this will be helpful. Thanks 🙏
