Sam Altman endorses Jensen Huang’s view on AI and its impact on jobs

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has expressed agreement with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s forward-looking perspective on how artificial intelligence (AI) will impact global workforce.

In a post on X, Altman noted key themes Huang has emphasised: AI will not eliminate jobs wholesale but will fundamentally change how work is done.



Huang has argued that “100% of everybody’s jobs will be changed” by AI but not erased, as said by many. Rather than causing mass unemployment, Huang envisions AI as a tool that will augment human ability and creativity, allowing people to do far more than before.

Echoing these sentiments, Altman wrote in a detailed post that with AI, "people will do a lot more than they could do before, still care very much about other people and what they do and still be very driven by creating and being useful to others".

Altman said jobs of the future will be unfamiliar or playful to our present-day eyes, similar to how past generations view today’s work.
