In a terrifying admission that signals a seismic change in corporate America, the CEO of one of the biggest carmakers in the US has broken cover to admit the devastating effects AI will have on the workforce.
While some execs have attempted vague assurances for American workers, Ford Motor CEO Jim Farley has predicted the rise of AI will take a sledgehammer to jobs.
'Artificial intelligence is going to replace literally half of all white-collar workers in the U.S.,' Farley told author Walter Isaacson at the Aspen Ideas Festival last week.
'AI will leave a lot of white-collar people behind.'
Bosses have been cautious about publicly admitting the reality of how many jobs could be cut from their companies as a result of AI.
That tide appears to be turning however, and Farley's comments are among the most transparent.
