'This is crazy. This is insane': Bill Gates has changed his mind about AI and jobs

Bill Gates has changed his perspective on artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential impact on jobs, stating that it could lead to a "manageable" transition. In an interview with Semafor, Gates expressed his shock at the lack of response from government and tech leaders to AI's dangers, predicting far fewer jobs in the future due to AI's rapid advancements.

He called for more urgent policies to protect workers and tax companies based on their AI usage. Gates fears that society may turn against AI if it leads to job losses, potentially hindering its ability to improve humanity, particularly in science and healthcare.
