\n The chief executive of the world\u2019s leading chipmaker warned that while artificial intelligence will significantly boost workplace productivity, it could lead to job loss if industries lack innovation.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cIf the world runs out of ideas, then productivity gains translates to job loss,\u201d said Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in an interview with CNN\u2019s Fareed Zakaria when asked about comments made <\/strong>by fellow tech leader Dario Amodei, who suggested AI will cause mass employment disruptions.\n <\/p>\n

\n Amodei, the head of Anthropic, warned last month that the technology could cause a dramatic spike<\/a> in unemployment in the very near future. He told Axios<\/a> that AI could eliminate half of entry-level, white-collar jobs and spike unemployment to as much as 20% in the next five years.\n <\/p>\n

\n Huang believes that as long as companies come up with fresh ideas, there\u2019s room for productivity and employment to thrive. But without new ambitions, \u201cproductivity drives down,\u201d he said, potentially resulting in fewer jobs.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe fundamental thing is this, do we have more ideas left in society? And if we do, if we\u2019re more productive, we\u2019ll be able to grow,\u201d he said.\n <\/p>\n

\n The increase in AI investments, which fueled a massive technology boom in recent years, has raised concerns about whether the technology will threaten jobs in the future. Roughly 41% of chief executives have said AI will reduce the number of workers at thousands of companies over the next five years, according to a 2024 survey<\/a> from staffing firm Adecco Group. A survey released<\/a> in January from the World Economic Forum showed 41% of employers plan to downsize their workforce by 2030 because of AI automation.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cEverybody\u2019s jobs will be affected. Some jobs will be lost. Many jobs will be created and what I hope is that the productivity gains that we see in all the industries will lift society,\u201d Huang said.\n <\/p>\n

\n Nvidia, which briefly reached $4 trillion in market value<\/a>, is among the companies leading <\/strong>the AI revolution. The Santa Clara, California-based chipmaker\u2019s technology has been used to power data centers that companies like Microsoft, Amazon and Google use to operate their AI models and cloud services.\n <\/p>\n

\n Huang defended the development of AI, saying that \u201cover the course of the last 300 years, 100 years, 60 years, even in the era of computers,\u201d both employment and productivity increased. He added that technological advancements can facilitate the realization of \u201can abundance of ideas\u201d and \u201cways that we could build a better future.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Artificial intelligence is also likely to change the way work is done. More than half of large US firms said they plan to automate tasks previously done by employees, such as paying suppliers or doing invoices, according to a 2024 survey<\/a> by Duke University and the Federal Reserve Banks of Atlanta and Richmond.\n <\/p>\n

\n Huang said that even his job has changed as a result of the AI revolution, \u201cbut I\u2019m still doing my job.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Some companies also use AI tools, like ChatGPT and chatbots, for creative tasks including drafting job posts, press releases and building marketing campaigns.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cAI is the greatest technology equalizer we\u2019ve ever seen,\u201d said Huang. \u201cIt lifts the people who don\u2019t understand technology.\u201d\n <\/p>\n
