Yes, but that is definitely a winner-takes-all type position. Top 0.1% get the 7 figure salaries, top 1% get a good job -- not sure about the other 99% (numbers for illustrative purposes only).

It's more like top 10% get 7 digit salaries, and the remaining 90% get by on upper 6 digits. Keep in mind there are probably only a couple thousand of "high end LLM researchers/mathematitions etc. who would really build LLMs" in the world.
