NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang: AI is creating a large number of job opportunities, and it is the best opportunity for the re-industrialization of the United States.

Deep Tide TechFlow News: On May 05, according to TechCrunch, NVIDIA CEO Huang Renxun said in a dialogue event hosted at the Milken Institute on Monday evening that AI is an “industrial-scale job creator,” not a sign of mass unemployment as claimed by “AI doomsayers.” The dialogue was hosted by Becky Quick of MSNBC.

Huang said, “AI is the best opportunity for the re-industrialization of the United States.” He said the AI industry is driven by industrial factories that use a new generation of production hardware as key infrastructure. These factories and other parts of the booming AI industry all require workers. He believes that even if a specific task is automated, it does not mean that a person’s entire job will be replaced, and he pointed out that such views “confuse the purpose of work with the tasks of work,” which are related but not the same.

Huang also criticized claims that AI will dominate human beings or wipe out large swaths of the economy, saying, “My biggest concern is that we have scared people… to the point that AI is so unpopular in the U.S., or people are so afraid of it, that they don’t want to truly engage with it.” The report noted that some “doomsday” rhetoric is actually generated by the AI industry itself, and critics believe such exaggerated claims are used as marketing gimmicks. Organizations such as the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) had previously predicted that AI would replace up to 15% of jobs in the United States over the next few years.
