In the last few years, the biggest fear around the world regarding AI has been whether machines will take away the jobs of humans. This debate became more intense after the arrival of ChatGPT and other AI tools. Many companies around the world have cut thousands of jobs in the name of AI. But now the tone of top tech CEOs seems to be changing.
Many people are beginning to feel that lakhs of people may become unemployed in the coming time. But now the big names of the AI world themselves are seen talking on this issue in a slightly different tone.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently admitted that the fear of job loss related to AI has not proved to be as true as he had previously thought.
Altman said that he thought that artificial intelligence would be the first to rapidly eliminate entry-level office jobs, but this has not been seen on a large scale yet. He even said that he was happy to be proved wrong.
Altman says that AI is making many tasks easier, but is not able to completely replace humans. Giving an example, he said that for some time he tried to get his messages and replies written by AI, but later he realized that the importance of conversation and connection between humans is different.
According to Sam Altman, there is a human component in many jobs that machines cannot easily copy.
Layoffs are being done on the pretext of AI: Nvidia CEO
On the other hand, the statement of Jenson Huang, CEO of American tech company Nvidia is also much discussed. He said that only those who will learn AI and learn to work with it will move forward. But the danger may increase for those who avoid adopting new technology. That means AI will not eliminate jobs completely, but will definitely change the way of working.
Jensen Huang also raised questions on those companies which are citing AI as the reason for every layoff. He says that many companies are making easy excuses in the name of AI. According to him, AI is not yet so old that it can suddenly eliminate jobs all over the world.
What is Google CEO Sundar Pichai saying?
Google CEO Sundar Pichai is also continuously saying that AI should not be seen as a fear but as a new tool. Recently he said that the coming generation will work with AI and create the future with it. Pichai believes that AI will help humans, but people will have to learn new skills.
However, this does not mean that the danger is completely over. Many companies around the world are now trying to do more work with fewer people with the help of AI.
Entry level and repetitive tasks have reduced in some places. But at the same time new types of work are also being created, such as AI training, AI monitoring and AI based content work.
A new research has also revealed that AI is changing the way of working more than directly eliminating jobs. Companies are now changing both the recruitment of people and their work responsibilities. This means that in the coming time, only those people will be more safe who will be able to change themselves with new technology.
The picture seems to be slowly fading away. While a few years ago, the fear of job apocalypse was the biggest issue, now big people in the tech world are saying that AI is not moving towards replacing humans but working with them.
