Jensen Huang says AI will reshape work like the Industrial Revolution and the US 'should absolutely lead'

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang thinks artificial intelligence will transform the workforce much like the Industrial Revolution did, creating new jobs and reshaping how Americans work.Speaking Thursday on "The Will Cain Show," Huang urged young people to embrace AI rather than fear it, arguing that the technology will become a tool that enhances workers' abilities across nearly every field. The Nvidia co-founder said the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure is already fueling demand for skilled labor, including electricians, welders and construction workers, as companies build chip manufacturing facilities, computer plants and data centers across the country."

We’ve created about half a million of them," Huang said. "We’re probably going to create a lot more."MIKE ROWE REVEALS WHICH AMERICAN JOBS WILL REMAIN UNTOUCHED BY THE COMING AI REVOLUTIONEarlier this week, Huang gave Fox News host Will Cain a tour of a manufacturing facility in Sherman, Texas, where Nvidia is partnering with software company Coherent.

Nvidia recently invested $2 billion in Coherent, which manufactures lasers and optics used in advanced technologies.Coherent CEO Jim Anderson said production at the company's Sherman facility is expected to quadruple over the next 12 to 18 months."It is the case that productivity creates more jobs," Huang said.

Huang said he views AI as a tool that can help people improve their skills rather than replace them. He encouraged students and young workers to pursue their interests while learning how to use AI alongside them.HERE'S HOW WE CAN LIVE AND WORK WI
