Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang speaks at VivaTech in Paris on June 11, 2025
Nvidia’s Jensen Huang said this week he believes “everybody’s jobs will be changed” by artificial intelligence.
Also this week, OpenAI’s Sam Altman said there could be “whole classes of jobs going away,” due to AI, but that he expects people to find new solutions to address the shift.
The comments come amid concerns over the extent to which AI could disrupt the labor market.
Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang said at an event earlier this week that he believes “everybody’s jobs will be changed” by artificial intelligence.
“Some jobs will be obsolete, but many jobs are going to be created … Whenever companies are more productive, they hire more people,” Huang said at the VivaTech conference in Paris Wednesday, Fortune reported.
The comments were in part in response to remarks from Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, who last month said that he expects AI could wipe out half of all entry-level office jobs, the report said. Huang said he “pretty much disagree[d] with almost everything” Amodei said.
He wasn’t the only tech CEO who had something to say about AI and jobs this week, amid worries the rapidly developing technology could lead to significant job losses.
Sam Altman, the CEO of ChatGPT maker OpenAI and one of the faces of the AI boom, wrote in a blog post Wednesday that he expects there could be “whole classes of jobs going away” as AI develops.
ChatGPT “is already more powerful than any human who has ever lived,” said Altman, who sees a future in which robots could be capable of building other robots designed for tasks in the physical world.
However, Altman added “people are capable of adapting to almost anything,” and said he expects humanity to find new solutions to address the shift.
