Golden Finance reported that on May 26, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said Tuesday that the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence will not lead to a global “job apocalypse,” and that this technology has not taken away a large number of white-collar jobs the way he had previously worried it would. He said that when OpenAI launched ChatGPT in 2022, the company’s predictions about technological progress were “basically correct,” but its assessment of the social and economic impacts was “quite wrong.” “I’m glad I made a misjudgment on this; I thought that so far the elimination of entry-level white-collar positions would be more severe than it actually is. Now I feel I understand better why it hasn’t happened, and I’m obviously relieved about that.” More and more global companies have announced that some of their internal roles are being replaced by artificial intelligence. Altman said he realizes that although AI is playing an increasingly positive role in many industries and jobs, there is still an irreplaceable “humanized part” in employment—many tasks require interpersonal interaction that AI cannot replace.
