In a leaked meeting recording exclusively obtained by Business Insider, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang indicated: "I want every task that is possible to be automated with artificial intelligence to be automated with artificial intelligence," Huang added. "I promise you, you will have work to do."

"My understanding is Nvidia has some managers who are telling their people to use less AI. Are you insane?"

NVIDIA isn't the only company that's heavily integrating AI into its workflow. At the beginning of the year, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff indicated that the company was seriously debating hiring software engineers, only to reveal that the company uses AI to write up to 50% of its code while citing incredible productivity gains.

Similarly, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella indicated that the company uses AI to write up to 30% of its code, which helped it save $500 million. As it stands, some professionals are already losing jobs to AI, and the most viable way forward appears to be upskilling, particularly in AI-related fields.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei claimed AI has the potential to slash up to 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs, leaving Gen Z without jobs. It will be interesting to see what the future job market looks like with the rapid prevalence and adoption of AI.
