Dario Amodei -- CEO of Anthropic, one of the world's most powerful creators of artificial intelligence -- has a blunt, scary warning for the U.S. government and all of us:
- AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs -- and spike unemployment to 10-20% in the next one to five years, Amodei told us in an interview from his San Francisco office.
- Amodei said AI companies and government need to stop "sugar-coating" what's coming: the possible mass elimination of jobs across technology, finance, law, consulting and other white-collar professions, especially entry-level gigs
Of course, the big question is what currently unforeseen new jobs will arise during the coming AI revolution.
