In an era where artificial intelligence is increasingly part of daily life, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has advised parents not to chase the hottest career, but to instead help their children engage with AI and learn. Speaking to CNN's Anderson Cooper, Huang emphasized that he doesn't know which career will be the most successful in the future. Instead, when asked for advice on what children should do and study, Huang recommended the same to his own children: go to school and engage with AI.
Huang argued against the notion that AI could render traditional education unnecessary. He believes education broadens a person's understanding of the world, elevates their civility, and helps mitigate bias and prejudice. The more knowledgeable one is, the better informed they become, leading to a more enlightened society. Huang reiterated that children should continue their education, even if no one can predict which qualification or career will lead to the highest salary.
The second piece of advice Huang gave to parents was to encourage their children to engage with AI. Contrary to the belief that AI might change the workplace negatively, Huang encouraged children to learn how to use AI to expand their capabilities and potentially achieve even greater aspirations. He viewed AI as a tool that can enhance children's abilities and open up new possibilities for them.
