Amazon Web Services CEO: I told my own teenager to develop this No. 1 'most important skill' to succeed in the AI age
Contrary to popular belief, you won't need a machine learning degree or other highly technical skills to succeed in the near future, according to Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman. As more artificial intelligence-powered tools get integrated into the workplace, employers will prioritize hiring workers with "soft skills" like creativity and adaptability, Garman told CNBC's "Closing Bell" on Friday. His advice to his own child, a rising high school senior, he said: Develop your critical thinking skills in college, no matter what subject you study. "I think part of going to college is building [your] critical thinking," Garman said. "It's less about the development of skills and it really is [about] how do you become a critical thinker? In some ways, I think that's actually going to be the most important skill going forward." Critical thinking skills will be most people's No. 1 biggest key to success in the age of AI, he added. "You're going to want to be creative. You're going to want to be [good at] critical thinking. And you're going to want to be flexible," said Garman. "I think the ability to learn new things and adapt is going to be just as important as any particular skill that you learn."The list of skills and administrative tasks that AI tools can replicate continues to grow, seemingly each day. Amazon, Garman's employer, is among the multiple companies that have announced plans to reduce their corporate workforces while adopting more AI tools and agents in the coming years. But AI is no match for human intellect when it comes to using critical thinking and creativity to generate new ideas and make nuanced judgments, research shows. It could be "the most valuable skill of the future" for human workers, particularly those tasked with curating and refining the output of AI tools, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said during an event hosted by Howard University in January 2024. "AI can generate lots of great ideas, but you still need a human there to say, 'This is the thing other people want,'" said Altman. Students can hone and apply their critical thinking skills across pretty much any area of study. Current workers can improve them through daily habits ranging from playing strategic board games to asking more questions, research shows. Multiple online courses say they'll help you improve your critical thinking and communication skills, including one offered for free through Harvard University and edX. Once you've developed those skills, you can showcase them to your current or prospective employers by highlighting examples of difficult problems you've solved at work — or asking thoughtful, purposeful questions that reflect your curiosity and communication skills, LinkedIn career expert Andrew McCaskill told Make It in January 2022. Garman highlighted two other important soft skills for both today and the future: the ability to smoothly adapt to new technologies, including AI-based tools and agents, and communicate effectively with colleagues and customers. Communication is another skill where humans have a leg up over AI — particularly in terms of our ability to pick up on social cues, exhibiting empathy and emotional intelligence, actively listen, and provide insightful feedback, research shows. "[Those skills] are important today. I think they'll be just as important, if not more important [in the future]," Garman said. As employers make plans to integrate more and more AI tools in the workplace, recruiters are specifically targeting prospective employees with the "adaptability" to keep up with technological changes, according to a LinkedIn blog post published in February 2024. AI tools can handle various administrative tasks, but most customers "still want to talk to a person" and get personal insights and attention from a human being, added Garman. "Those people skills are going to continue to be super important for a long time," he said.

As Trump berates Goldman, other economists agree that higher tariff inflation is coming
Goldman Sachs is taking the heat for its call that heavier tariff-induced consumer inflation is ahead, but it's far from alone in that view among its Wall Street brethren. Despite investors' embrace of Tuesday's fairly benign consumer price index report, economists expect that the biggest impact to inflation is yet to come. With pre-tariff inventories rolling off, effective tariff rates climbing higher and companies less willing to absorb higher costs from the duties, the general feeling is that consumers are increasingly going to feel the bite through the rest of the year. "Tariffs could subtract 1% from GDP and add 1-1.5% to inflation, some of which has already occurred," Michael Feroli, chief U.S. economist at JPMorgan Chase, said in a note. "There is considerable uncertainty around the degree of pass-through to consumer prices, given that this year's tariff increases are well larger than anything in the post-war US experience." President Donald Trump lambasted Goldman Sachs on Tuesday for research the firm's economists released over the weekend asserting that consumers will take on a significantly stronger hit from tariffs through the end of the year. Goldman Sachs economist David Mericle, appearing Wednesday on CNBC, defended the call and said the firm was undeterred by Trump's criticism. In a Truth Social post, the president suggested CEO David Solomon fire the economist who wrote the piece or consider resigning himself. However, if every market economist who is in the same camp on tariff impacts were to be dismissed, there would be a lot of empty desks on Wall Street. Most see at least a steady grind higher in prices as tariff clarity emerges and what looks to be effective rates around 18% — compared with around 3% at the start of the year — take root, with some caveats. "It appears that the downward trend in core inflation has been broken as tariffs start to feed through into retail prices," UBS senior economist Brian Rose wrote. "We expect inflation to continue on a gradual upward trend as businesses pass along their higher costs, but slowing shelter inflation and push-back from increasingly stretched consumers should help offset some of the tariff impact." To be sure, no one is calling for runaway inflation — more like monthly gains of 0.3%-0.5%. That's enough to push the Federal Reserve's preferred core measure to somewhere in the low- to mid-3% range. Moreover, whatever the acceleration ends up being, it's not expected to dissuade the Fed from starting to lower interest rates after staying on the sidelines through all of 2025 so far. Economists figure a deteriorating labor market along with a belief that the inflation move will be temporary to allow for easier monetary policy. However, in the near term rising inflation could hold back consumer spending and dent growth through the rest of the year. JPMorgan sees the hit to gross domestic product, two-thirds of which comes from consumption, at "a bit under 1%." The Blue Chip Economic Indicators report for August, which surveys the leading economic names on Wall Street, sees GDP growth averaging just 0.85% in the second half of this year. But that's actually better than the 0.75% forecast from July as some of the most pessimistic forecasters changed their outlooks on the view "that the constraining effect of tariffs is expected to be temporary, as projected growth improves considerably next year," the August report said. Causes for concern in the near term include the Aug. 29 expiration of de minimis tariff exceptions, which had allowed goods valued at under $800 to enter the U.S. duty-free. That could hit retail goods in particular. Pantheon Macroeconomics forecasts a 1 percentage point gain to core inflation, which it sees ultimately hitting 3.5% by the end of the year. "Only about a quarter of that uplift has filtered through to consumers so far, so we see a strong chance core goods prices will rise at a faster pace over coming months," the firm said. BNP Paribas noted that it expects the price increases to go beyond goods as recent surveys are "suggesting upward pressure in services input prices." "The Fed's main worry about inflation is less the exact level and more the question of stickiness," the firm added in a note. "The July [CPI] print, with surprising strength in core services, is therefore not compellingly good news." The issue of inflation "stickiness" is important as well. The Cleveland Fed's measure of sticky price CPI inflation, which includes items such as rent, food away from home, insurance, household furnishings and the like, has shown a steady uptick. It's at 3.8% on a three-month annualized basis, the highest since May 2024. Flexible-price inflation, such as food, energy and motor vehicle parts, is running much lower. "Tariffs will lead to higher inflation in the months ahead," PNC chief economist Gus Faucher wrote. "With the core CPI picking up in July, and higher prices coming as businesses pass along higher tariff costs to their customers, core PCE inflation is set to move even further above the Fed's target in the months ahead." Though most of the Street expects the path to rate cuts opening, higher inflation could give policymakers some hesitation even with a weaker labor market, Faucher said.
