The CEO of Anthropic is doubling down on his warning that AI will gut entry-level jobs


Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warned AI could eliminate entry-level jobs in law, finance, and consulting within five years.

In an interview on BBC Radical with Amol Rajan published on Thursday, the CEO said repetitive-but-variable tasks in law firms, consulting, administration, and finance could be eliminated in the next one to five years. In March, Amodei said at a Council of Foreign Relations event that AI could write 90% of software code within three to six months and "essentially all" of it within a year, with human engineers increasingly focused on design constraints rather than line-by-line programming. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang dismissed Amodei's bleak outlook at VivaTech in Paris in June, saying he disagreed with "almost everything" the Anthropic chief had said and predicting AI would change jobs rather than erase them.
