The rise of AI: Huang’s warning for workforce. On the subject of artificial intelligence, Jensen Huang is worth taking seriously. The Nvidia chief recently warned that AI demands “new social norms.” In other words, the rules of everyday survival are changing, and fast. To explain, Huang points to the automobile. Early cars were lethal, speeding into cities built for horses. Children played in the streets, and pedestrians crossed wherever they liked. The technology arrived instantly; the rules for surviving it took decades to catch up. Eventually, towns built sidewalks, traffic lights, and created driving tests. Play moved off the asphalt, because the cost of leaving it there was measured in body bags. AI is forcing that exact same correction, only on a hyper-compressed timeline. Going forward, the wreckage won’t be measured in broken bones, but in broken dreams and erased bank accounts. We are witnessing the birth of America’s next underclass: a permanent, tech-illiterate sub-stratosphere of the workforce. The defining divide of the next decade won’t be a simple gradient of rich versus poor, but a sort of two-tier caste system separating those who can command AI from those who cannot. submitted by /u/coinfanking
