3 remote jobs that pay $100,000+ with just a bachelor’s degree in 2024.

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

Although master's degrees are associated with higher paying positions, this is not always the case, ... [+] especially as you end up incurring more expense and debt that does not always yield its return on investment

If you thought making six figures was a privilege reserved exclusively for those with years of experience or master's degrees, think again.

While having a postgraduate degree can be highly beneficial for career advancement and bumping up one's salary, it does not always, or automatically, translate to significant financial returns. You might find yourself frustrated, even after completing a master's degree, because you feel like you've wasted money and debt, and are not receiving your return on investment.

With a bachelor's degree, there can be less risk involved as it is not as highly specialized, is less expensive, and can offer you a broader range of options and career flexibility, including admission into roles without being viewed as too niche or overqualified.

Whether or not you decide to pursue a master's degree remains your individual prerogative and is down to your specific career goals, as there are some jobs that are simply inaccessible with out having one.

However, if you are seeking to cut your debt and spending this year while progressing up the ladder, here are three remote jobs you should consider that are easily accessible to bachelor's degree graduates. These remote jobs pay exceptionally well, commanding lucrative figures of as much as $100,000, or more as you progress.

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of 2024

Best 5% interest savings accounts of 2024, 1. remote technical writer.

Do you consider yourself to be a strong communicator? Do people regularly comment on how you have a knack for breaking down complex information into layman's terms? Perhaps a career as a technical writer would be one you would enjoy and thrive in.

A technical writer is a professional with strong communication skills, who is able to translate technical concepts easily.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there is a projected 7% growth in demand for technical writers over the next few years. This role is useful for writing product manuals and set-up guides, how-to's, and assembly instructions. You might find yourself collaborating with developers and manufacturers, and you'll often use a range of graphics, videos, and illustrations to break down product concepts for its end users.

What Bachelor's Degree Do I Need?

To be a technical writer, a bachelor's degree in English or similar communications field, and/or a STEM subject (depending on some employers) is usually necessary.

Average salary range: $51,735 to $151,762

Average salary: $101,749

High-paying jobs that you can get with bachelor's degrees can be highly technical and specialized

2. Remote Management Consultant (Associate)

It's no secret that management consulting is seriously lucrative business. One of the most amazing aspects of this industry is that even at the entry-level, as an associate in a management consultancy firm, you can expect to make as much as $150,000 in some cases. With your bachelor's degree, you can work in the larger consulting firms such as those that occupy the prestigious title of "Big 3."

For example, this job posting by McKinsey and Company invites applicants from both bachelor's degree and master's degree backgrounds to apply, granted they meet the other requirements for the role. However, it should be noted that it does state that applicants with an advanced degree are strongly preferred. Likewise, other job postings on LinkedIn for management consultant roles mention bachelor's degree as a core requirement. Occasionally, they will say that a master's degree is a plus.

Common bachelor's degrees for management consultants include business administration and management, economics, finance, accounting, and even computer science.

Average salary range: $114,150 to $146,201

Average salary: $130,145

3. Remote Quantitative Analyst

According to data from the BLS, employment for financial and quantitative analysts is expected to rise by 8% from now up to 2032, which is faster than the average for job growth rates in the U.S. The BLS also notes that while "most entry-level positions for financial analysts require a bachelor’s degree," there are some employers who prefer to hire candidates with a master’s degree.

"A quantitative analyst is a professional who uses quantitative methods to help companies make business and financial decisions," Investopedia puts it. "Investment banks, asset managers, hedge funds, private equity firms, and insurance companies all employ quantitative analysts, or 'quants,' to help them identify profitable investment opportunities and manage risk."

To work as a quantitative analyst, you would need a bachelor's degree in mathematics, statistics, computer science, or other related highly quantitative field.

Average salary range: $97,296 to $124,012

Average salary: $110,078

Never underestimate the value of selling yourself and your portfolio to improve your chances of ... [+] being hired

With strong job projections and eye-watering salaries at the entry-level, including lucrative career paths as you progress up the ladder, finding your first remote job armed with just a bachelor's degree is easily within reach. However, never underestimate the importance of job-ready skills and relevant experience, which you can gain through working at non-profits, freelancing, or doing pro bono work in the meantime. Ensure you fully showcase your practical expertise and domain knowledge, and maximize every opportunity so you can sell yourself effectively.

Share All sharing options for: Gagarin Cup Preview: Atlant vs. Salavat Yulaev

Gagarin cup (khl) finals:  atlant moscow oblast vs. salavat yulaev ufa.

Much like the Elitserien Finals, we have a bit of an offense vs. defense match-up in this league Final.  While Ufa let their star top line of Alexander Radulov, Patrick Thoresen and Igor Grigorenko loose on the KHL's Western Conference, Mytischi played a more conservative style, relying on veterans such as former NHLers Jan Bulis, Oleg Petrov, and Jaroslav Obsut.  Just reaching the Finals is a testament to Atlant's disciplined style of play, as they had to knock off much more high profile teams from Yaroslavl and St. Petersburg to do so.  But while they did finish 8th in the league in points, they haven't seen the likes of Ufa, who finished 2nd. 

This series will be a challenge for the underdog, because unlike some of the other KHL teams, Ufa's top players are generally younger and in their prime.  Only Proshkin amongst regular blueliners is over 30, with the work being shared by Kirill Koltsov (28), Andrei Kuteikin (26), Miroslav Blatak (28), Maxim Kondratiev (28) and Dmitri Kalinin (30).  Oleg Tverdovsky hasn't played a lot in the playoffs to date.  Up front, while led by a fairly young top line (24-27), Ufa does have a lot of veterans in support roles:  Vyacheslav Kozlov , Viktor Kozlov , Vladimir Antipov, Sergei Zinovyev and Petr Schastlivy are all over 30.  In fact, the names of all their forwards are familiar to international and NHL fans:  Robert Nilsson , Alexander Svitov, Oleg Saprykin and Jakub Klepis round out the group, all former NHL players.

For Atlant, their veteran roster, with only one of their top six D under the age of 30 (and no top forwards under 30, either), this might be their one shot at a championship.  The team has never won either a Russian Superleague title or the Gagarin Cup, and for players like former NHLer Oleg Petrov, this is probably the last shot at the KHL's top prize.  The team got three extra days rest by winning their Conference Final in six games, and they probably needed to use it.  Atlant does have younger regulars on their roster, but they generally only play a few shifts per game, if that. 

The low event style of game for Atlant probably suits them well, but I don't know how they can manage to keep up against Ufa's speed, skill, and depth.  There is no advantage to be seen in goal, with Erik Ersberg and Konstantin Barulin posting almost identical numbers, and even in terms of recent playoff experience Ufa has them beat.  Luckily for Atlant, Ufa isn't that far away from the Moscow region, so travel shouldn't play a major role. 

I'm predicting that Ufa, winners of the last Superleague title back in 2008, will become the second team to win the Gagarin Cup, and will prevail in five games.  They have a seriously well built team that would honestly compete in the NHL.  They represent the potential of the league, while Atlant represents closer to the reality, as a team full of players who played themselves out of the NHL. 

• Atlant @ Ufa, Friday Apr 8 (3:00 PM CET/10:00 PM EST)
• Atlant @ Ufa, Sunday Apr 10 (1:00 PM CET/8:00 AM EST)
• Ufa @ Atlant, Tuesday Apr 12 (5:30 PM CET/12:30 PM EST)
• Ufa @ Atlant, Thursday Apr 14 (5:30 PM CET/12:30 PM EST)

Games 5-7 are as yet unscheduled, but every second day is the KHL standard, so expect Game 5 to be on Saturday, like an early start.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.

What a study of AI copilots for lawyers says about the future of AI for everyone

Hello and welcome to Eye on AI. Name a profession and there’s almost certainly someone building a generative AI copilot for it. Accountants, lawyers, doctors, architects, financial advisors, marketing copywriters, software programmers, cybersecurity experts, salespeople—there are copilots already in the market for all of these roles. AI copilots differ from using a general-purpose LLM-based chatbot, like OpenAI’s GPT models, although some use one of those general-purpose models as their central component. Copilots have user interfaces and usually backend processes specifically tailored for the particular tasks that someone in that profession would want assistance with—whether that is crafting an Excel spreadsheet formula for an accountant, or, for a salesperson, figuring out the best wording to convince a customer to close a complex deal. Many copilots rely on a process called RAG—retrieval augmented generation—to boost the accuracy of the information they output and reduce the tendency of LLMs to hallucinate or produce superficially plausible but inaccurate information. Perhaps no profession save software developers has embraced experimentation with copilots as enthusiastically as the law. There have already been several instances where lawyers—including former Trump lawyer-turned-star-witness-for-the-prosecution Michael Cohen —have been reprimanded and fined by judges for naively (or very lazily) using ChatGPT for legal research and writing without checking the case citations it produced, which in some cases turned out to be completely invented. The legal copilots , however, are supposed to be much better than ChatGPT at completing legal tasks and answering legal questions. But are they? The answer matters because lawyers’ experience using these copilots may foretell what will happen in other professions too in the coming few years. In that context, a study published last month (and updated Friday) from researchers affiliated with Stanford University’s Human-Centered AI Institute (HAI) sounded an important caution—not just for the legal profession but for copilots as a whole. The HAI researchers, who included a Stanford Law professor, created a dataset of 200 questions designed to mimic the kinds of questions a lawyer might ask a legal research copilot. The Stanford team claims their questions are a better test of how legal copilots may perform in a real-world setting than bar exam questions—especially because a lot of datasets of bar exam questions have already been memorized by LLMs trained for vast amounts of data scraped from the internet. The dataset includes some particularly tricky questions in which the question includes a false premise. Such questions often lead LLMs astray. Trained to be helpful and agreeable, they frequently accept the false premise and then invent information to justify it, rather than telling the user the premise of the question is wrong. The researchers then tested several prominent legal research copilots, including one from LexisNexis (Lexis+ AI) and two from Thomson Reuters (Ask Practical Law AI and Westlaw’s AI-Assisted Research) on this dataset. They used OpenAI’s GPT-4 as a kind of control, to see how well an LLM would do without RAG and without any of the other backend processing that had been geared just for legal research. The answers were evaluated by human experts. For lawyers—and everyone hopeful RAG would eliminate hallucinations—there was a little bit of good news and quite a lot of not-so-good news in the results. The good news is that RAG did indeed reduce hallucination rates significantly. GPT-4 had a hallucination rate of 43% while the worst of the three legal copilots had a hallucination rate of 33%. The bad news is that the hallucination rates were still much higher than you’d want. The best two copilots still made up information in about one out of six instances. Worse still, the RAG-based legal copilots often omitted key information from answers, with between nearly a fifth to well over half of the responses judged by human evaluators as incomplete. By contrast, fewer than one in 10 of GPT-4’s responses failed on this metric. The study also pointed out that LexisNexis’s copilot provided legal citations for all the information it provided, but that sometimes the cases cited did not say what the copilot said they did. The researchers pointed out that this kind of error can be particularly dangerous because the presence of the citation to a real case can make lawyers complacent, making it easier for errors to slip past. LexisNexis and Thomson Reuters have both said that the accuracy figures in the HAI study were significantly lower than what they’ve found in their own internal performance testing and in feedback from customers. “Our thorough internal testing of AI-Assisted Research shows an accuracy rate of approximately 90% based on how our customers use it, and we’ve been very clear with customers that the product can produce inaccuracies,” Mike Dahn, head of Westlaw Product Management at Thomson Reuters, wrote in a blog response to the HAI study. “LexisNexis has extensive programs and system measures in place to improve the accuracy of responses over time, including the validation of citing authority references to mitigate hallucination risk in our product,” Jeff Pfeifer, LexisNexis chief product officer for the U.S., Canada, Ireland, and the U.K., wrote in a statement provided to newsletter LegalDive. The blog post HAI wrote to accompany the research pointed to a recent story by Bloomberg Law that also could give people pause. It looked at the experience of Paul Weiss Rifkind Wharton & Garrison—among the 50 largest U.S. law firms with close to 1,000 attorneys—with a legal copilot from the startup Harvey. Paul Weiss told the news organization that it wasn’t using quantitative metrics to assess the copilot because, according to Bloomberg, “the importance of reviewing and verifying the accuracy of the output, including checking the AI’s answers against other sources, makes any efficiency gains difficult to measure.” The copilot’s answers could also be inconsistent—with the same query yielding different results at different times—or extremely sensitive to seemingly inconsequential changes in the wording of a prompt. As a result, Paul Weiss said it wasn’t in a position yet to determine the return on investment from using Harvey. Instead, Paul Weiss was evaluating the copilots based on qualitative metrics, such as how much attorneys enjoyed using them. And here, there were some interesting anecdotes. It turned out that while junior lawyers might not see much time-savings in using the AI copilot for research because of the need to verify its answers, more senior lawyers found the copilot to be a very useful tool for helping them brainstorm possible legal arguments. The firm also noted that the copilot could do certain things—such as evaluate every single contract in a huge database in minutes—that humans simply could not do. In the past, firms had to rely on some sort of statistical sampling of the contracts, and even then the process might take days or weeks.

Pablo Arredondo, cofounder of CoCounsel, a legal copilot now owned by Thomson Reuters, but which was not part of the HAI study, told me that the HAI study and the Bloomberg story reinforce that all generative AI legal copilots need oversight (as do junior associates at law firms). Some of the areas where the copilots stumbled in the HAI study, such as determining when a case had been overturned subsequently by a higher court, are also areas where different legal research companies often provide conflicting information, he noted. Taken together, I think the Stanford study and the Bloomberg Law story say a lot about where AI copilots are today and how we should be thinking about where they are heading. Some AI researchers and skeptics of the current hype around generative AI have jumped on the HAI paper as evidence that LLMs were entering the “trough of disillusionment” and that perhaps the entire field is about to enter another “AI winter.” I think that’s not quite right. Yes, the Stanford paper points to serious weaknesses in AI copilots. And yes, RAG will not cure hallucinations. But I think we will find ways to continue to minimize hallucinations (longer context windows is one of them) and that people will continue to use copilots.

The HAI paper makes a great case for rigorous testing—and for that performance data to be shared with users. Professionals must have a clear sense of copilots’ capabilities and weaknesses and need to understand how they are likely to fail. Having this mental model of how a particular copilot works is essential for any professional working alongside one. Also, as the Bloomberg Law story suggests, many professionals will come to find copilots useful and helpful, even in cases when they aren’t entirely accurate—and that the efficiency gains from such a system may be hard to evaluate. It’s not about whether the copilot can do well enough on its own to replace human workers. It’s about whether the human working with the copilot can perform better than they could on their own—just as in the case of the senior Paul Weiss lawyers who said it helped them think through legal arguments.

Arredondo said that Thomson Reuters is in early discussions with Stanford to form a consortium of legal tech firms and law firms to partner along with other academic institutions, to develop and maintain benchmarking for legal copilots. He said that ideally, these standards would compare how human lawyers perform on these same tests and then see how they perform when assisted by AI tools, as opposed to evaluating the systems only against one another and without the human oversight they still need.

We don’t have very good benchmarks for human-AI teaming. It’s time to create some.

There’s more AI news below… But first, if you want to find out more about working alongside AI copilots, I’ve got some news of my own: My book Mastering AI: A Survival Guide to Our Superpowered Future is now available for pre-order in the U.S . and the U.K. ! The book has a chapter on how AI will transform the way we work. But Mastering AI goes well beyond that to reveal how AI will change and challenge our democracy, our society, and even ourselves. AI presents tremendous opportunities in science, education, and business, but we must urgently address the substantial risks this technology poses. In Mastering AI I explain how. If you enjoy this newsletter, I know you’ll find the book valuable. Please consider pre-ordering your copy today.

AI IN THE NEWS

Current and former OpenAI, Google DeepMind staff calls for greater whistleblower protections. A group of former and current employees of both OpenAI and Google DeepMind have signed an open letter calling for staffers at AI companies to be given a “right to warn” the public about AI safety concerns. The letter, which was also signed by AI pioneers Geoffery Hinton and Yoshua Bengio, asks AI companies to commit to not using nondisparagement agreements to keep former employees from speaking out about safety concerns at their current or former employer; to creating processes for employees to raise safety concerns anonymously with companies’ boards and with regulators; and to not retaliate against any whistleblowers. In a New York Times story about the core group of current and former OpenAI employees behind the open letter, Daniel Kokotaljo, a former OpenAI policy researcher who recently left the company, accused OpenAI of “recklessly racing” to achieve AGI—an AI system as intelligent as humans—without due regard for safety.

Nvidia announced its latest generation of GPUs only months after having revealed its previous generation.  At the start of the COMPUTEX computer conference in Taiwan, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced the semiconductor company's next-generation Rubin graphics processing unit, the kind of computer chips needed for AI applications. The announcement came just two months after Nvidia had unveiled Blackwell, the successor to its H100 Hopper GPUs, its current highest-performing system. Blackwell is only due to start arriving with customers later this year, and in the past Nvidia had tended to announce major new GPU systems only once every two years. Huang said that the company plans to move to a one-year release "rhythm" for new chips, according to CNBC . Still, the fact that Rubin was announced so quickly after Blackwell may pose a dilemma for customers who may be reluctant to purchase Blackwell chips if they know a powerful one will be available just months later. 

Elon Musk diverts GPUs intended for Tesla to his AI startup xAI. That’s according to a report from CNBC based on internal Nvidia emails it said it obtained. Musk had promised Tesla investors that the electric vehicle maker, whose stock has been under pressure amid slowing sales, would increase its stock of Nvidia graphics processing units (GPUs), the powerful chips needed for AI applications, from 35,000 to 85,000 by year’s end. He portrayed the AI investment as important for Tesla’s development of autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots. But the emails suggest Musk had actually ordered fewer of these chips for Tesla and had redirected portions of what he had ordered to xAI, possibly causing a delay in Tesla’s own AI-related plans. The story is likely to further annoy Tesla shareholders who are eager for the stock to return to growth.

Sam Altman’s outside investments raise potential conflict-of-interest concerns. That’s according to an investigative article from the Wall Street Journal that looked into the sources of Altman’s wealth, which the newspaper estimated at $2.8 billion. The paper identified nearly 400 companies in which Altman has investments, including stakes in Stripe and Airbnb. But it is Altman’s investments in some lesser-known startups, some of which are working in areas that intersect with OpenAI’s business interests or have done deals with the AI startup, where the potential for conflicts of interest poses a greater concern. The newspaper noted that many CEOs are barred from having substantial outside business interests and investments in order to avoid these sorts of conflicts. The paper also reported that Altman had pledged some of his equity in a portfolio of startups as collateral to secure debt from JP Morgan that he then used to make further startup investments, a potentially risky strategy.

That’s the amount of money that the tiny island nation of Anguilla made in 2023 from the huge growth in the number of people wanting to buy an internet domain address ending with .ai, which is a geographic domain registration owned by the British overseas territory. In 2022, Anguilla doled out 144,000 .ai registrations, but following the release of ChatGPT in November that year, domain registration purchases soared to 354,000 in 2023. The $32 million the island made off those sales constitutes 20% of its total revenue. You can read more from the IMF here .

Will licensing data to AI companies save publishers and media companies? That's the question a lot of people have been asking after a flurry of deals between such businesses and AI companies. The latest announcements came last week from The Atlantic and Vox, which both signed agreements to license their content to OpenAI. This follows news last month that News Corp. had reached a deal with the ChatGPT-maker that was worth $250 million over five years. Meanwhile, Shutterstock CEO Paul Hennessy told Bloomberg that licensing of his company’s stock images and videos to both Big Tech companies—including Meta, Alphabet, Amazon, and Apple—and AI startups, including OpenAI, had brought in $104 million in the past year. This has led many to speculate that AI will be the lifeline many media businesses need, particularly if the use of AI chatbots and generative AI search engines undercuts internet traffic and thus the advertising revenue many of these companies depend upon.

But Jessica Lessin, the founder of The Information, wrote an essay in The Atlantic arguing that media companies—well, news organizations in particular—are making a huge mistake by allowing AI firms to train on their data and access their content. In fact, she suggests they are repeating the same mistake they have made many times over in the past two decades, with the iPad, Google, and social media. She writes:

Chasing tech’s distribution and cash, news firms strike deals to try to ride out the next digital wave. They make concessions to platforms that attempt to take all of the audience (and trust) that great journalism attracts, without ever having to do the complicated and expensive work of the journalism itself. And it never, ever works as planned. What do you think? Are publishing companies wisely taking advantage of a new revenue stream or sowing the seeds of their own destruction?
