The ‘Godfather of AI’ Says This Sector Will Be Safe From Being Replaced by Tech—but Even Then, only the ‘Very Skilled’ Will Hold Down a Job

  • Geoffrey Hinton, the Godfather of AI, warned on June 16, 2025, that AI will cause mass joblessness, especially in mundane intellectual labor sectors.
  • He based this warning on AI's rapid advances and declining new graduate hiring in tech, noting that many jobs will be replaced or drastically reduced.
  • Hinton highlighted healthcare and physical trades like plumbing as safer fields since AI struggles with adaptability, dexterity, and human empathy required there.
  • He explained, "You'd have to be very skilled to have a job it couldn't just do," and predicted one person will do the work of ten with AI assistance.
  • Hinton urged policymakers to prepare for mass displacement with reskilling programs and income guarantees, as the technological shift will reduce workforce needs significantly.
