OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman says in 10 years time college graduates will be working 'some completely new, exciting, super well-paid' job in space | Fortune
"Not only will they be reeling in sky-high salaries, but Altman says they'll also be "feeling so bad for you and I that we had to do this really boring, old work and everything is just better." "In 2035, that graduating college student, if they still go to college at all, could very well be leaving on a mission to explore the solar system on a spaceship in some completely new, exciting, super well-paid, super interesting job," Altman told video journalist Cleo Abram."
"Now, even OpenAI CEO Sam Altman-one of Silicon Valley's biggest leaders driving the AI revolution-is admitting the elephant in the room is true: AI will wipe out some jobs entirely. However, the tech billionaire insists the coming decade could be the most exciting time in history to start a career, especially for anyone who's ever dreamed of working in space."
AI will eliminate some jobs entirely while enabling new, high-paying careers focused on space exploration by the mid-2030s. Graduating college students could join missions to explore the solar system and occupy novel, well-paid roles aboard spaceships. Aerospace engineering employment is growing faster than the national average, with annual pay above $130,000. NASA's goal of reaching Mars in the 2030s may accelerate demand for space-related occupations. Broader workforce changes could include dramatically shortened workweeks as AI handles many tasks, reshaping early-career trajectories and creating opportunities that may render today’s entry-level jobs comparatively mundane.
