OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, the very architect who helped unleash this AI whirlwind, has now taken the stage to warn that the technology he championed might be moving just a tad too quickly for the rest of the planet to keep up.
In a recent interview with Jimmy Fallon, Altman admitted that systems like ChatGPT are evolving so rapidly that global institutions, labour markets, and quite a few million workers could be left scrambling in the dust. Entire job categories, particularly the predictable, repetitive ones such as customer service and basic data processing, may simply vanish sooner than anyone planned.
“One of the things that I’m worried about is just the rate of change that’s happening in the world right now,” Altman told Jimmy Fallon.
