Dharmesh Shah argues AI isn't a rival but an amplifier of human capability, like computers before it. Jobs will shift, but new roles will emerge. AI extends what humans can do, not replaces them.
Right now, most people talk about this like the AI versus human battle, right? The battle of the ages. It's like, is AI going to take over everyone's job? The way I think of it is not human versus AI. It's human to the AI power. It's an exponent. It's an amplifying force for human ability the same way that computers originally were. It's like, did they eliminate some jobs when computers came along? Yes, absolutely they did. But new jobs emerged based on that new paradigm, which actually created more net value for the world overall as a result of computers existing. AI to me is another much fancier tool. That's what it is.
