'This is the single largest infrastructure buildout in human history. Get
involved': Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says AI and robotics offers 'once in a
lifetime' opportunity

Description:
It's clear that AI and robotics are changing the world, but resources are
limited and job displacement remains a very real threat.

FULL STORY

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has asserted that humanity is seeing one of the
biggest revolutions in human history from AI and robotics. 

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Huang ruled out
fears of an AI bubble by stating artificial intelligence reaches all sectors
it's not just a term used in tech businesses. 

"The spot price of rentals is going up. Not just the latest generation, but
two-generation-old GPUs," Huang argued in an interview with Blackrock CEO
Larry Fink (via The Register ), referring to the sheer reach of AI.

AI bubble fears

Artificial intelligence has already been seen to require ongoing investment
across data centers, but energy infrastructure is also under higher-than-ever
pressure and demand for skilled professionals is equally as high. 

Also speaking at Davos, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella also ruled out an
impending AI bubble , noting, "I think a telltale sign of if it's a bubble
would be if all were talking about were the tech firms," he said, remarking
AI's global and cross-industry reach. 

We're also seeing AI evolve into physical devices, with Huang stating that
robotics provide a "once-in-a-generation" opportunity for European
manufacturing. 

Huang also made positive remarks on AI's effects on the labor market  he
believes that "tradecrafts" will be vital to the buildout of data centers and
infrastructure. "This is the largest infrastructure buildout in human history
and that's going to create a lot of jobs," he said. 

Nadella's opinion differed, focusing instead on jobs affected by AI. He
compared today's landscape to previous workforce trends, where prospective
employees would have to prove competency across various office software like
Word and Excel. AI upskilling is just the next phase of that. 

In short, it's clear that both leaders see AI and robotics drastically
changing the way we see work, but quite how that translates into job creation
or job losses is yet to be seen.
