Jensen Huang Says AI Will Change Everything—Here's How to Keep Your Job
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang isn't holding back when it comes to the looming impact of AI on the job market. At the Milken Institute's Global Conference earlier this month, he made it clear: AI will affect every job, and it's happening fast.
'Every job will be affected, and immediately. It is unquestionable,' Huang said. But he didn't stop there. He emphasized that the real risk isn't AI itself, but the people who learn to harness its power. 'You're not going to lose your job to an AI, but you're going to lose your job to someone who uses AI.'
Huang's prediction paints a future where those who ignore AI will find themselves replaced by more tech-savvy counterparts. While some tech leaders like Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei are predicting widespread job losses—up to half of all entry-level white-collar positions within five years—Huang takes a different stance. He believes AI will put 30 to 40 million workers back to work by boosting productivity and bridging the global talent gap.
'I would recommend 100% of everybody take advantage of AI,' Huang advised. 'Don't be that person who ignores this technology and as a result, loses your job.'
The debate around AI's impact is dividing the tech world. While Axios reported that Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warns of mass layoffs, others like Mark Cuban point to historical job shifts. 'At one point there were more than 2 million secretaries,' Cuban wrote on Bluesky. 'New companies with new jobs will come from AI and increase total employment.'
One thing is clear: ignoring AI is no longer an option. Whether it's a tool for job security or a looming threat, the era of AI-driven transformation is here, and it's moving faster than anyone Huang Says AI Will Change Everything—Here's How to Keep Your Job first appeared on Men's Journal on May 30, 2025
