Artificial Intelligence / Elon Musk's Shocking AI Prediction: All Jobs Will Be Taken By Robots

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and X (formerly Twitter), has once again made a startling prediction about the future of artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact on the job market. Musk stated that AI and robots will eventually take over all human jobs, leaving people with the sole option of growing their own food for sustenance. Musk's comments came in response to a post on his social media platform X, which discussed Amazon's alleged plans to replace 60,000 employees with AI and robots. Replying to the post, Musk wrote, "In the future, AI & robots will take all jobs. The option will be to grow vegetables rather than buy them. " This statement adds to the ongoing debate about AI's disruptive potential, especially as tech giants like. Google, Microsoft, and TCS have already laid off thousands of employees, partly attributed to the rise of AI.

Concerns from Other Experts

Musk isn't alone in expressing concerns about AI's potential to eliminate jobs. Geoffrey Hinton, often referred to as the 'Godfather of AI,' has also previously warned about the dangers of advanced AI, including the possibility of machines completely replacing human labor. These expert warnings underscore the growing apprehension within the tech community and beyond regarding the long-term societal implications of AI.

Musk's AI Ventures

Ironically, while Musk warns about the job-destroying capabilities of AI, his own companies are at the forefront of AI development. His AI company, xAI, is actively working on advanced AI projects, and Tesla is. Developing autonomous Optimus robots, videos of which Musk frequently shares on his X handle. This duality highlights the complex relationship between technological advancement and its potential socio-economic consequences.

Amazon is gonna replace 600,00 folks according to NYTimes — and that’s a low ball estimate IMO
