Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told the audience at the company’s October AI Summit in Mumbai last week that artificial intelligence (AI) will not fully replace human workers. It reassured me. While acknowledging AI’s ability to significantly improve productivity, the 51-year-old billionaire stressed that it is impossible to perfectly replicate the complex tasks involved in most jobs.
AI won’t take your job away: Huang, who last year hailed ChatGPT as one of the greatest computing inventions of all time, said that while AI can perform certain tasks within a job much more efficiently than humans, if anything I believe that it functions as an assistant. “As we speak, there’s no chance that AI will do what we do,” Huang said. “Some people may be able to do 20% of their jobs 1000 times better. Some people may be able to do 50% of their jobs 1000 times better. But you can’t do everything at any job.” Asked if AI would take his job, he said: “Absolutely not.”
Benefits for AI Adopters: The event comes on the heels of Nvidia’s market value soaring by an incredible $400 billion in just five days in early October due to growing excitement around AI. I did. Instead of fearing job losses due to AI, Huang warned that those who effectively utilize AI tools will gain a competitive advantage. “The real threat is someone using AI to automate 20% of that and taking your job,” he warned. This reflects Hwang’s previous call for Nvidia to become a company with “100 million AI assistants” and his vision for AI agents to collaborate with humans in the workplace.
