OpenAI CEO: AI will create more new jobs instead of creating a lot of unemployment

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently said that he is now "pretty sure" that AI will create net jobs rather than lead to mass unemployment. This view is a clear shift from his past warnings that AI may replace a large number of jobs, and has attracted attention in the industry. Altman has publicly expressed concerns about AI replacing human jobs many times in the past, even predicting that many industries will face structural unemployment. However, he emphasized in his latest speech that the development of AI is more likely to create new types of jobs, and the overall job market will show positive growth. He did not provide specific data to support it, but pointed out that technological revolutions in history have ultimately led to employment growth. Future Impact Analysts believe that Altman's change may reflect OpenAI's internal assessment of the economic impact of AI that has become more optimistic, and may also be an attempt to alleviate external fears about AI replacing jobs. However, many economists still warn that the impact of AI on the labor market may vary by industry, and some low-skilled jobs are still at risk of being replaced.
