OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has publicly admitted he was wrong about AI's impact on jobs. The Silicon Valley executive made the announcement during a virtual appearance at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia's technology conference in Sydney on Tuesday.
Altman told conference attendees that the anticipated AI 'jobs apocalypse' has not materialised in the way many industry leaders, including himself, once feared. He admitted that entry-level white-collar positions have proved more resilient to automation than his earlier intuition suggested.
