CEO of OpenAI Sam Altman Insights on The Impact of AI on the Job Market

The Chief Executive Officer of Open AI, Sam Altman, who is currently embarking on a global tour to engage with world leaders on AI regulation, emphatically stated on Friday that the rise of AI will not obliterate job markets. Altman, addressing a gathering of local entrepreneurs at the esteemed business incubator Station F in Paris, provided insightful responses to their inquiries.

ChatGPT, a stellar creation of OpenAI, which gained prominence in recent times, has triggered substantial debates regarding the future of employment.

The notion that AI will progress to a stage where humans are devoid of any labor or purpose has never resonated with me, expressed Altman, as quoted by AFP.

Altman, whose accomplishments at OpenAI have propelled him to the forefront of the technology realm, has been greeted warmly by leaders in diverse locations, ranging from Lagos to London.

Delving into the realm of media industries, where numerous outlets have already employed AI to generate content, Altman suggested that ChatGPT should function as a digital entourage, offering invaluable assistance in research and ideation.

Established in 2015 by a group of investors including Elon Musk, the founder of Twitter who subsequently parted ways with the organization, OpenAI aspires to advance and guide artificial intelligence in ways that profoundly benefit all of humanity.

Elon Musk, the billionaire who claims credit for conceiving the name OpenAI, has recently been critical of the company, expressing concerns about its potential shift towards a closed-source, profit-oriented model akin to that of Google.

During his extensive global tour, Altman has plans to visit India in June of this year, where he may have the opportunity to engage with high-ranking government officials.
