Tesla CEO Elon Musk on jobs that AI can not replace: ‘There will be…'
Tesla CEO Elon Musk
believes that while artificial intelligence (AI) is set to transform many industries, some jobs may remain uniquely human. In a response to a question posted by
Peter H. Diamandis
– Executive Chairman @XPRIZE on X (formerly Twitter), Musk said: 'There will be a premium for human experiences'. Diamandis, in the X post, asked the following question: 'Which jobs will AI not be able to automate?'.
Musk's comment highlights a growing concern about the future of work as AI technologies become more advanced. Many experts predict widespread automation could replace jobs in sectors like manufacturing, customer service, and data entry.
Although Musk did not list specific roles, it is likely that jobs involving storytelling, art, caregiving, teaching, and other deeply human experiences may retain their importance. Industries such as entertainment, therapy, education, and hospitality could be among those where people remain central.
In another news, Musk has once again raised alarms about plummeting global fertility rates, asserting that a 2.7 children per woman average is needed for population stability, higher than previously thought. In a recent post on X, the Tesla CEO responded to claims that women need an average of 2.7 children per woman to maintain population stability, significantly higher than the previously accepted 2.1 replacement rate.

"People who have kids do need to have 3 kids to make up for those who have 0 or 1 kid or population will collapse," Musk wrote, sharing his mathematical calculation for maintaining global population levels.
The entrepreneur's latest comments came in response to alarming fertility statistics showing the United States currently at 1.66 children per woman, while countries like Italy and Japan lag even further behind at 1.29 and 1.30 respectively. These figures fall well short of the newly proposed 2.7 threshold, which factors in variables like childlessness rates and gender distribution.

Bangladesh slashes Adani Power dues with $384 million payment, $500 million still outstanding
Bangladesh paid USD 384 million to Adani Power in June, significantly reducing its outstanding dues under a power supply agreement with the Indian firm, according to sources. In June (till June 27), Bangladesh has paid USD 384 million of the committed USD 437 million to be paid during the month, two sources aware of the matter said. This would clear Bangladesh's "admitted" claims till March 31. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play War Thunder now for free War Thunder Play Now Undo With this, Adani's "claimed" dues, while still substantial, will come down to around USD 500 million (assuming Bangladesh meets its month-end commitment), they said. Bangladesh has struggled to meet its payment obligations under the 2017 deal, as rising import costs following the Russia-Ukraine conflict in 2022 and domestic political turmoil - which led to the ouster of prime minister Sheikh Hasina - strained the country's finances. Live Events As a result, Adani had halved supply last year and full supplies were resumed in March 2025 after the country's monthly payments started covering some of the dues. With the latest payments, Bangladesh has paid nearly USD 1.5 billion of the roughly USD 2 billion total billed amount. Adani has reportedly agreed to waive late payment surcharge (LPS) for January-June period, amounting to about USD 20 million, if Bangladesh keeps its payment commitment. Sources said both parties are engaged in discussion to resolve some issues related to coal cost and plant capacity calculations. These are the key reasons behind the difference between "claimed" and "admitted" dues. When contacted, an Adani Power spokesperson confirmed the payments but didn't share details on "claimed" and "agreed" dues stating these discussions are private. The 2017 power supply deal between Adani Power and Bangladesh had come in for scrutiny after the ouster of the Sheikh Hasina-led government last year. Interim government, led by Nobel Peace prize laureate Muhammad Yunus, called for the formation of a high-level committee, comprising energy and legal experts, to re-examine the power purchase agreement (PPA). Under the 2017 deal, Adani Power's Godda power plant in Jharkhand was to supply 100 per cent of the electricity generated from burning coal, to Bangladesh for a period of 25 years. After payment defaults, Adani had cut supplies by half in November 2024. It restored full electricity supply, which is around 1,600 MW, in March after the country reduced liabilities. Bangladesh stepped up repayments from July last year, clearing monthly dues. This came after the country suffered from increased power shortages in rural areas. Bangladesh has been struggling to generate sufficient dollar revenues to cover the cost of essential imports such as electricity, coal, and oil. Its foreign currency reserves declined amid months of student-led protests and political unrest, which culminated in the ousting of the Sheikh Hasina government in August 2024. The interim government that succeeded her sought an additional USD 3 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on top of the existing USD 4.7 billion bailout package. Adani's power deal with Bangladesh was one of the many under Sheikh Hasina, which the current interim government has called opaque. Besides Adani Power, other Indian state-owned firms also sell power to Bangladesh, including NTPC and PTC India Ltd .

Jeff Bezos weds Lauren Sanchez: Bride's wedding dress took 900 hours to make and it's absolutely jaw-dropping
Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos exchanged vows on June 27, 2025, in a lavish Venetian ceremony held at San Giorgio Maggiore. Sanchez donned a custom Dolce & Gabbana gown, while Bezos sported a classic tux. The three-day celebration, attended by A-list celebrities, reportedly cost $55 million, solidifying its place as one of the year's most extravagant weddings. So, big news: Lauren Sanchez married Jeff Bezos on June 27, 2025, in a jaw-dropping ceremony on San Giorgio Maggiore, Venice. And yes, it was pretty much the wedding of the decade. Lauren stole the show in a breathtaking Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda gown - get this, it took over 900 hours of artisan craftsmanship to bring to life, according to Harper's Bazaar. The dress featured long sleeves, a sleek corseted waist that played up her figure, and a turtleneck that gave it that classy, old-world vibe. But the real showstopper? A mermaid-style skirt paired with 180 silk-covered buttons trailing down the floor-length train. Talk about fairytale bridal. Lauren shared BTS snaps of the dress on her social channels, calling it 'not just a gown, a piece of poetry.' And honestly, the moment spoke for itself, it was the perfect dress for a ceremony so grand and romantic. Jeff looked just as sharp in a classic black Dolce & Gabbana tux. Together, they made quite the power couple - fancy, timeless, and ultra-coordinated. Their first official wedding snap? Pure elegance. The wedding itself went down on San Giorgio Maggiore, a stunning island spot right across from St. Mark's Square. It was a massive three-day affair filled with A-listers: Bill Gates, Kim & Kris Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Karlie Kloss, Ivanka Trump, Orlando Bloom… the list goes on. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Worth every bit of the reportedly $55 million price tag, making it one of the priciest weddings we've seen this year. The ceremony kicked off beautifully with Matteo Bocelli serenading guests with 'Can't Help Falling in Love.' Such a romantic vibe for a love story that's pretty much modern legend. Earlier in the day, before the main event, Lauren was spotted in a cool throwback-chic, all-white suit and silk headscarf as she left the Aman Hotel. Jeff rocked a sharp black tux and aviators, low-key prelude to the big wedding finale. Fun twist: the couple originally planned to wed on June 28 at Scuola Grande della Misericordia but had to switch venues last minute due to protests. Seems like the glam life doesn't come without its drama. All in all, from the couture-level dress and star-studded guest list to the dreamy Venetian backdrop, this wedding had it all. Lauren and Jeff? Definitely know how to pull off a wedding for the social media (and history) books.

Liquidity surplus alone doesn't boost broad credit growth, economic activity holds greater influence: StanChart report
Standard Chartered Bank (Image credits: IANS) Credit growth in the economy is influenced more by overall economic activity than by the size of the liquidity surplus, according to a recent report by international bank Standard Chartered. The report said that while a high liquidity surplus may support growth in unsecured personal loans (excluding consumer durable loans), it does not necessarily lead to broad-based credit expansion. "Credit growth depends more on economic activity than the size of the liquidity surplus; however, unsecured personal loan growth (ex-consumer durables) could get a fillip on a large liquidity surplus," reported ANI quoting the report. It noted that credit growth, excluding unsecured personal and consumer durable loans, tends to slow down during times of excess liquidity. This points to real credit demand, which is closely tied to economic activity, being a stronger driver than the availability or cost of funds. The central banks often respond to slowing economic activity by increasing liquidity as a counter-cyclical measure. However, even with such efforts, overall credit (excluding unsecured personal and consumer durable loans) as a share of GDP has historically declined during times of high liquidity surplus. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo Citing one example, the report said that between December 2016 and September 2017, when liquidity surplus ranged between 2.6% and 3.3% of net demand and time liabilities (NDTL), credit (excluding unsecured personal and consumer durable loans) as a share of GDP fell from 48.9% to 46.2%. This downward trend continued until mid-2019. In contrast, unsecured personal loans (excluding consumer durables) have shown a strong upward trend over the past decade, with their share in GDP more than doubling to around 6%. This growth is driven by structural factors such as greater credit access and the rise of digital lending. However, the pace of expansion in this segment tends to pick up during periods of high liquidity. For instance, during March 2021 to March 2023, when liquidity conditions were relaxed, the share of unsecured personal loans in GDP rose faster than in previous similar periods, the report highlighted.
