Silicon Valley builds crazy Amnesty International agents to increase human work. If such agents are working as intended, a full set of jobs – or near them may be extinct. Artificial intelligence agents are preparing to remove customer service representatives, sales assistants, executives, information technology responsibility, novice developers, and journalists. AI Startup Boardy to replace the so -called “VC” by automating the premises of people.
When the founders or investors are asked about removing the potential jobs that their technology will make, the answer is always the same: yes, artificial intelligence will eliminate some functions. But it will also create others.
Ensure that it has become the VC Mike Ghafary. GHAFARY is famous for its time as a general partner in Canvas Ventures and in advance in Capital Capital. Its investments include Superhuman, Strava, Faire, Optimizley and Cloudkitchens.
On Friday, Gavari announced exclusively to Techcrunch that he left Canvas to join Burst Capital, a VC company founded in 2017 by a group of former executives in Yelp. Burst is led by the former Yelp Coo Geoff Donaker. (Ghafary and Donaker also worked together in Yelp years ago.
In Burst, Ghaffari looks forward to supporting companies that create not only job opportunities, but also creates a good -wage middle -class jobs for millions of people who have no advanced degrees in artificial intelligence and machine learning.
“As we see this displacement in the job, we do something about it,” he says to Techcrunch. “I feel a lot of” don’t worry. Do not look here. Artificial intelligence will destroy a lot of functions, but it will create job opportunities as well! “As technical companies, we need to create those new jobs that we promise.”
Some companies that do this by providing technology to small business owners, such as Owner.com that help restaurant owners and pop restaurants with marketing; Or glossgenius, which makes reservation and payments for all in one to style hair.
Among his own wallets is the RSQ, which helps restaurants and hospitality companies manage their equipment repair needs, including identical to them with repair dealers.
But Gavari says that the largest gap he sees is emerging companies using artificial intelligence to create high -wage functions. “I will tell you one company I am also looking for that I did not find it: vocational training.”
He wants to see the founders build startups that use artificial intelligence to help people learn high -wage deals such as industrial electricity or commercial plumbers, or raise their skills in other industries.
“This is where artificial intelligence can come,” he says. He would like to see a reasonable price plan that would provide virtual or improved training in artificial intelligence, “almost like flight simulation” but for “millions of people” at risk of leaving them.
“I think there is a great opportunity,” he says. “It is for the sake of our country and our world. Otherwise, we have this great working community, and it is not good for anyone.”
