USA,Nov 7,2024-In an exclusive interview, AMBCrypto Co-founder Himanshu Kumar shares his perspective on AI’s impact on employment and why he believes the focus should be on adaptation rather than replacement.
As someone who leads a media platform at the forefront of technological innovation, Himanshu Kumar has a unique perspective on how AI is reshaping the workforce. The Co-founder of AMBCrypto shares his insights on navigating the AI revolution and why he believes the narrative around job displacement needs to change.
Q: There’s a lot of fear about AI replacing jobs. What’s your take on this?
Himanshu Kumar: The fear is understandable but misplaced. AI isn’t going to replace jobs – it’s going to transform how we work. Think about how the internet changed jobs. Did it eliminate jobs? Yes, some. But it created far more opportunities than it eliminated. AI will follow a similar pattern, but at a much faster pace.
Q: So you’re optimistic about AI’s impact on employment?
Himanshu Kumar: I’m realistic. At AMBCrypto, we use AI tools daily, but they haven’t replaced our journalists or analysts. Instead, they’ve made them more efficient and allowed them to focus on higher-value tasks. That’s the key – AI handles repetitive work, freeing humans to do what they do best: think creatively, build relationships, and make complex decisions..
Q: What about industries that seem more vulnerable to automation?
Himanshu Kumar: Every industry will be affected, but affected doesn’t mean eliminated. Take accounting, for example. AI can handle bookkeeping, but accountants are becoming strategic advisors. The key is to move up the value chain. Don’t compete with AI on tasks it does better; focus on tasks that require human judgment and creativity.
Q: How should businesses approach AI adoption without causing workforce panic?
Himanshu Kumar: It’s about integration, not replacement. At AMBCrypto, we followed three principles:
- Transparent Communication: Be clear about how AI will be used
- Gradual Implementation: Start with tools that enhance rather than replace
- Skills Development: Invest in training employees to work alongside AI
Q: What advice do you have for young professionals entering the workforce?
Himanshu Kumar: First, don’t fear AI – learn to use it. It’s just another tool, like Excel or PowerPoint. Second, focus on developing skills that AI can’t easily replicate. Third, stay curious and adaptable. The specific tools will change, but the ability to adapt and learn will always be valuable.
Q: How do you see the job market evolving in the next 5-10 years?
Himanshu Kumar: We’ll see a shift toward hybrid roles that combine technical and human skills. Jobs won’t be replaced; they’ll be augmented. The most valuable employees will be those who can effectively collaborate with AI while maintaining their unique human perspective.
Q: What’s the biggest misconception about AI and jobs?
Himanshu Kumar: That it’s a zero-sum game – either AI wins or humans win. The reality is that the biggest opportunities will come from AI-human collaboration. At AMBCrypto, our best work comes from combining AI’s processing power with human insight and creativity.
The real question isn’t whether AI will take our jobs, but how we’ll use it to create better ones. And from what I’ve seen, the future of work looks more promising than ever – it just might not look exactly like we imagined,” says Himanshu Kumar. As the Co-founder of AMBCrypto and a leader at the intersection of technology and media, Kumar’s optimistic yet practical perspective offers valuable insights for anyone navigating the evolving landscape of work in the AI age.
