New York Tops SF for U.S. Tech Talent, Fueled by AI

CBRE's latest study finds New York now has more tech workers than the San Francisco Bay Area for the first time in 13 years, driven largely by AI roles that make up about a third of U.S. tech listings; NY leads overall tech talent, while SF remains the AI leader. AI jobs rose about 45% year over year, with leasing activity concentrated in Manhattan and other AI-heavy markets like SF, Boston and Seattle, and SF driving a large share of AI leasing in the first half of this year. In Canada, AI jobs cluster in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.

New York Surges Past San Francisco in Tech Talent, CBRE Reports

A CBRE analysis finds New York now has more tech workers than San Francisco (394,300 vs. 375,730 from 2022–2025). San Francisco still leads the Tech Talent Scorecard, but New York’s tech workforce is growing rapidly, aided by its finance cluster and post‑pandemic layoffs (Layoffs.fyi tracks over 833,000 cuts since 2022). The Bay Area’s brain‑drain persists even as AI hiring expands; Austin remains behind in CBRE’s rankings. New York is also pursuing policy moves, such as reclassifying some last‑mile delivery contractors as employees, to cement its tech‑talent appeal.

Tech Leaders Decry Trump’s Green Card Clampdown as Talent and AI Risk

Trump’s administration announced tighter rules restricting adjustment-of-status for green cards, allowing it only in extraordinary circumstances and forcing many applicants to remain outside the U.S. while cases are processed. The move drew immediate backlash from lawyers, business leaders, and AI researchers who warn it could disrupt skilled labor, slow American competitiveness in AI, and upend long-standing visa holders, even as proponents frame it as enforcing immigration law. Critics include tech founders, investors, and lawmakers who say the policy risks undermining innovation and the economy.
