At the end of May, CEO Anthrope Dario Amodei seemed to open on a sensitive issue, warning that Half or entry level jobs It could disappear in five years because AI and pushed is not 20%. But Amodei is far from sharing aloud that foresaw a Bloodbath of the workforce. A new WSJ story It highlights how other CEO are also broadcasting terrible predictions on the work impact of AI, turning the use of fatality into a competitive sport.
Several of these predictions occurred before Amodei’s comments. For example, on the annual investor day of JPMorgan in early May, his chief of consumption banking Marianne Lake projected that AI would do it “allow“A 10% reduction of the workforce. But they have been quickly and have become more marked, since then. In a note last month, Andy Jassy of Amazon warned employees to wait for a smaller workforce due to the” “Once in life“The technological change that is underway. The CEO of Thredup said at a conference last month that AI will destroy” much more jobs that the average person thinks. “Not to be left behind, Jim Farley De Ford delivered perhaps the most internal claim until now, saying last week” will literally replace half or all white collar workers In the United States “
It is a dramatic change of the previous cautionary statements of executives about the displacement of work, says the magazine.
