OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on Tuesday that the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence will not lead to a global "job apocalypse," and that this technology has not taken away as many white-collar jobs as he previously feared. He stated that when OpenAI launched ChatGPT in 2022, the company's predictions about the development of technology were "basically correct," but their judgments about the social and economic impacts were "quite wrong."

"I am glad that I misjudged this matter; I originally thought that by now, the elimination of junior white-collar jobs would be more severe than it actually is. Now I feel I understand better why that hasn't happened, and I am obviously relieved about it." An increasing number of global companies have announced that some positions within their organizations are being replaced by artificial intelligence. Altman noted that he realizes that despite AI playing an increasingly positive role in many industries and positions, there remains an irreplaceable "human aspect" in employment, and much of the interpersonal interaction required for many jobs will not be replaced by AI.
