      "question": "How much does a AI engineer earn in Slovenia?",
      "answer": "A AI engineer in Slovenia earns a median of about €4,000 gross per month in 2026 (Jobflick estimate), with most salaries between €2,800 and €6,200 gross per month."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is that gross or net pay?",
      "answer": "All figures are gross monthly pay before tax and social contributions. In Slovenia, net pay is typically 62%–68% of gross, so a median of €4,000 gross is roughly €2,480–€2,720 net."
    },
    {
      "question": "Are these figures official?",
      "answer": "No. They are a Jobflick estimate built from the pay of related roles and the national average wage (SURS). We found no published official figure for this occupation."
    },
    {
      "question": "What is the difference between an AI engineer and a data scientist?",
      "answer": "A data scientist mainly analyses data and builds models; an AI engineer builds and maintains AI features in products (including LLM applications) and keeps them running in production. In practice the roles overlap."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is AI engineer really a growing job?",
      "answer": "LinkedIn Jobs on the Rise 2026 lists (US and Australia data) put AI engineer first, and the WEF Future of Jobs 2025 report names AI and machine-learning specialists among the fastest-growing jobs. We found no equivalent Slovenian data; Zurnal24 reports MojeDelo.com recorded about 40% fewer IT job ads than in 2024."
