AI Career Future: OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has made a big claim that the entire career system will change by 2035. AI will eliminate old jobs, but also create new high-paid career opportunities. Know what Altman said…
AI Career Opportunities: The way we understand career and job today, its definition may change completely in the coming 10 years. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes that AI will not just change jobs, but will reset the entire career system. In a recent interview, Sam Altman clearly said that students graduating around 2035 may not enter the traditional job market at all. That means there will be neither need to send CV nor any pressure from the corporate sector.
Why will the career of 2035 be completely different from today?
According to Sam Altman, the coming decade could be the most exciting time in history to launch a career. AI will take over most of today’s routine and knowledge-based jobs. When machines take over tasks like data analysis, reporting, coding and basic decision-making, entirely new industries will arise for humans. These will be such jobs, whose names may not even exist today, but the salary and growth will be much higher than the current standard.
Not an office job, but a space mission?
Altman’s vision doesn’t stop there. He says that many high-paid jobs of the future may be related to space exploration and frontier technology. It is possible that a youth graduating in 2035 may not be at an office desk but may be part of a mission to explore the solar system. These jobs will not only be mentally exciting, but their earnings can also be much higher than today.
Entry-level and repetitive jobs will end
Although Sam Altman has a positive outlook, he does not run away from the truth. He clearly admitted that this change would not be easy. With the advent of AI, entry-level and repetitive jobs will be eliminated first. Those who follow rules and require little creativity or judgment are most at risk. It means clearly that high salary and new opportunities will not be available directly. First the job market will break, then gradually a new one will be created.
Why is Gen Z at the forefront?
Sam Altman believes that Gen Z will benefit the most from this change. People who are starting careers today are becoming part of the system at the very beginning of the AI transition. They have time to learn, experiment and re-skill themselves again and again. Altman even said that he is jealous of people starting careers today, because they are stepping into a future where there will be more opportunities.
AI will replace me too- Sam Altman
The most shocking thing came when Sam Altman gave a statement about himself. He admitted that in the future AI can also replace him as the CEO of OpenAI and he considers it not a threat but a success. Altman says that if OpenAI does not become one of the first major companies in the world to be able to run their own AI, it will be a failure. According to him, in the coming few years, AI can become so advanced that they can work on par with senior leaders in running departments, making strategies and taking decisions.
