The chief executive of a prominent tech company put himself in the unusual position of promoting AI but saying its widespread adoption in the workplace will upend the job market.

Meanwhile, his company, a leading artificial intelligence lab, is selling AI technology that it says can work nearly seven hours a day, the length of a typical human workday. A recent World Economic Forum survey found that 41% of employers plan to reduce their workforce because of AI automation by 2030.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said he was sharing these concerns as a warning for the government and other AI companies to prepare everyone for what is to come.
