JAKARTA - Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft, remains optimistic about the social benefits of artificial intelligence (AI), but now even a billionaire is afraid that AI can replace his job.
In a recent interview, Microsoft founder Bill Gates spoke about the future of work in the artificial intelligence era (AI) and highlighted three areas he considered most resistant to takeover by AI technology.
Gates, who remains optimistic about the benefits of AI for the public, said that he was even afraid that AI could replace his job. "I could even lose my job," he said in a podcast with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
Over the years, Gates has promoted three promising career paths for new graduates: alternative energy, health bioscience, and advances in artificial intelligence. However, he insists that becoming a "giant philanthropic" is not the job on the safe list.
Gates talks about how AI technology can help improve various aspects of health services. For example, he mentioned that AI chatbots can help patients understand and evaluate personal risks to HIV better.
According to Gates, many people feel uncomfortable talking to doctors or nurses about their sexual history, and AI can provide solutions to overcome this problem.
Gates has also taken concrete steps to support his ideas about key sectors that should be emphasized for the future of work. Through his company, TerraPower, Gates invests in the development of environmentally friendly nuclear energy.
According to him, the alternative energy sector is one of the sectors that is very important and promising for the future, especially in an effort to deal with climate change.

In addition, Gates also highlighted the importance of progress in the field of artificial intelligence. Despite the fear that his work could be replaced by AI, Gates remains optimistic that this technology can be used to solve human complex problems, such as increasing access to education and mental health globally.
Gates hopes that with today's smart investments, AI can be a tool that helps create a fairer world. Through interviews and publications such as its podcast and blog "Gates Notes", Gates continues to focus on the potential future and ethical dimension of artificial intelligence development.
Thus, despite fears about the impact of AI on human work, Gates encourages emphasis on key sectors such as healthcare, alternative energy, and artificial intelligence as pillars of the future of the world of work.
