On May 26, 2026, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated during his attendance at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia conference in Sydney that the rapid development and proliferation of artificial intelligence will not trigger a global 'jobs apocalypse.' He pointed out that the number of white-collar jobs currently being displaced by AI is lower than his previous concerns. Altman revealed that initially, he was very worried about the impact of AI on the global job market, but gradually realized that certain aspects of the workplace that rely on human qualities cannot be replaced, such as interpersonal interactions. He used his own experience as an example, having attempted to use AI to respond to instant messaging software and emails, but ultimately chose to personally handle some information, believing that human connections are crucial.
