Yeah, so doing an AI course online especially one that lines up with what companies in the U.S. actually need can definitely open the door to better pay in 2026. That’s why going with a hands-on AI course online makes more sense for a lot of people, and programs like H2K Infosys tend to focus more on that real-world side of things. But it’s not as simple as study in the USA = high salary. What really moves the needle is your skill set how comfortable you are working on real problems, building models, handling data, that sort of thing. I’ve seen people with just certificates struggle, while others with solid project work do much better. The AI field is still paying well, no doubt, but employers are picky in a practical way they want to see what you have built, not just what you’ve learned.
