OpenAICEO: Artificial intelligence unlikely to trigger job apocalypse

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on Tuesday that the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence will not lead to a global "job apocalypse" and that the technology has not claimed as many white-collar jobs as he previously feared. He said that when OpenAI launched ChatGPT in 2022, the company's predictions about technology development were "basically correct", but the judgment on the social and economic aspects was "quite wrong."<br /> "I am very happy that I made a mistake in judgment on this matter. I originally thought that so far, the elimination of junior white-collar positions would be more serious than the actual situation. Now I feel like I understand better why it didn't happen, and I'm obviously glad about it." A growing number of global companies have announced that some positions within their companies are being replaced by artificial intelligence. Altman said he realized that although artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly active role in many industries and positions, there are still "humane parts" of employment that cannot be replaced, and the interpersonal interactions required for many jobs will not be replaced by artificial intelligence.
