At present, if there is someone who understands artificial intelligence and how it can affect employment, that is Jensen Huang. The founder and CEO of Nvidia, the company that is behind the majority of the chips that make AI today, do not go with Rodeos.
In his last talk at Columbia Business School in New York, Huang made it clear that this technology It is causing a 180 degree turn in the labor market and that the greatest risk is not that AI takes your job, but that someone does to use it better than you.
His advice is simple and focuses on people must take advantage of AI, learn to use it and not be left behind. And he doesn’t say so because yes. In Nvidia they already work every day with intelligent assistants who help engineers program, design and even organize work.
The CEO insists that the AI, well used, can divide the workload by half and release time for other tasks you would consider more relevant and unique to humans. «Instead of thinking that AI replaces the work of 50% of people, you should think that AI will do 50% of the work of 100% of people,» he explained. That is, AI is to complement, not to eliminate at once.
«The AI will not take your job, but whoever uses it»
Of course, the manager recognizes that the arrival of AI will bring many changes. There will be works that disappear, others that change a lot and new ones that we do not even imagine. But he insists that the key is how we adapt. If you know how to use AI, you will have advantage. Therefore, it encourages everyone to try tools such as perplexity or chatgpt, even out of curiosity.
As for the issue of mass layoffs that some companies are carrying out to save some costs and facilitate life, Huang has been quite clear with it.
According to him, when AI increases the productivity and benefits of a company, the normal thing is not that people say goodbye, but that more personnel are hired to take advantage of the growth. «If my gross margins have just climbed, why would it be time to say goodbye to staff? Why do people think about their job?»
In a nutshell, if a company earns more thanks to AI, the logical thing is to grow, set new projects and need more hands, no less. In fact, Huang goes further and predicts that, in the absence of human workers, we will end up ‘paying the robots’ to work.
The CEO of Nvidia is clear: the shortage of human workers is real and the solution is in robotics
«By the end of this decade, at least 50 million workers will be missing in the world. If we could, we would pay $ 50,000 to each one, but we will probably end up paying that amount to robots to work,» Huang said in a recent event.
Although this may sound quite alarming and precipitated, the truth is that it is not exaggerating at all. Nvidia Isaac G00T N1 model, presented in June, is an open source platform created to accelerate the development of humanoid robots capable of learning, adapting and performing tasks increasingly close to those that humans do.
From moving objects to manipulating all kinds of materials and tools or even evaluating products, these robots are already being tested by companies such as Agility Robotics, Boston Dynamics and Neura Robotics.
The goal is to cease to be simple tools and become co -workers, day to dayto collaborate and learn with humans.
Simple and going to the grain, Nvidia wants its products to be the brain of 1,000 million humanoid robots, 10 million automated factories and 1.5 billion autonomous vehicles in the coming decades.
The CEO ensures that AI is in a ‘turning point’ and that its company is already the backbone of large data centers and the current economy at the technological level.
