Uh or just a I think

00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:14.197
to have a lot tight security What you can

00:00:14.280 --> 00:00:16.837
so take job legal

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:21.960
good scope or have the future imagine

00:00:22.240 --> 00:00:25.957
is the registration Dog or

00:00:26.040 --> 00:00:31.157
you overflow if register
candidates and then I will

department especially
faculty I tell and then

00:00:36.400 --> 00:00:40.010
opinion >> [applause]

00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:48.877
>> is a two parts first part I think

00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:53.077
alumni because I was Joe open investors

00:00:53.160 --> 00:00:56.717
on God I'm open chat session

00:00:56.800 --> 00:00:58.077
a question

00:00:58.160 --> 00:01:04.117
so I can director again
come here I think I can

00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:09.437
I can education research
>> It was no Mr. Sam

00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:13.677
we know come here we realize

00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.917
the dog or we are going
to be in >> or director

00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:20.117
come speech come on a man session

00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:25.800
>> He saw me young people maybe talk about

00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:30.677
Yeah. This is a wonderful trip. Uh

00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:33.917
so good for me and a lot more today
this is the thing I've been most

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:38.477
looking forward to of the entire trip.
Uh watching what's happening with young

00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.157
people around the world. Uh especially

00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:46.957
building with incredible
energy what they are. Uh the new

00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:49.597
startups that are going to happen
that are already happening

00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.887
the new products services going to get
created they just totally embrace

00:01:53.970 --> 00:01:55.597
>> [clears throat] >> and

00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:58.637
the excitement and the to bring all of

00:01:58.720 --> 00:02:02.037
this agency and energy and

00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:06.517
you know, speed to the future
is awesome. I have a

00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:08.957
1-year-old kid uh

00:02:09.040 --> 00:02:11.797
and he is never going to know a world

00:02:11.880 --> 00:02:14.757
where he is smarter than a computer.

00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:18.917
Ever. He was born just at the right
time to be never outrun by a computer

00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:23.597
in raw intelligence.
And you know, for him it'll be totally

00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:27.957
normal life. And any any technical skill
you learn today, you're better at it.

00:02:28.040 --> 00:02:31.237
Um it's still worth learning.
You know, like someone asked me

00:02:31.320 --> 00:02:33.637
recently, "Do I regret
learning to program?"

00:02:33.720 --> 00:02:37.877
Um because, you know, clearly the AI
is a better programmer than you know,

00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:41.997
me. And the answer is uh not at all.
I also don't regret learning

00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.317
math, even though I never use math
as an adult. Uh learning how to think,

00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:49.757
learning how to learn quickly, this is all
valuable skill, but it it was all of

00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:53.757
the meta skills that matter.
>> I think what matters is the technical

00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:55.917
knowledge they have that

00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:01.397
an electrical engineer can do
a structural engineer's job quite easily.

00:03:01.480 --> 00:03:05.677
And by the way, you're building both
structural engineers, ship designers, uh

00:03:05.760 --> 00:03:08.997
and um electrical
engineers in San Antonio.

00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:11.637
That means use

00:03:11.720 --> 00:03:14.037
information everywhere. So, what do you

00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:18.957
think matters? >> Well,
I know I just said this, but I I

00:03:19.040 --> 00:03:22.277
can't emphasize enough how important I
think it is to stay on the forefront of

00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:25.597
the tools. I expect that to be a company

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.317
accelerator. Uh so, building projects

00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.597
all of the time just figure
out what what's going to be

00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:37.797
possible, and it's going to rapidly
increase every couple of months from now

00:03:37.880 --> 00:03:40.077
now on. That that really matters.

00:03:40.160 --> 00:03:44.757
>> So, I really encourage all
of you to go be risk-taking.

00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:49.797
There's so much opportunity to take
advantage of it. Take advantage of your

00:03:49.880 --> 00:03:52.237
curiosity, uh

00:03:52.320 --> 00:03:57.597
agency, risk-taking, and then
persistence because the path is never

00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.117
simple or or smooth.
So, you have to persist

00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:05.800
through the hard times. Thank you. I think

00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:10.477
>> for students to ask
their own questions.

00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:15.037
For this, I'd like to invite on stage Mr.
Raghav Gupta, the head of education

00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:19.477
for OpenAI in India.
He's currently leading partnerships with

00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:23.887
academic institutions, ensuring
that AI is integrated into the company.

00:04:23.970 --> 00:04:29.720
>> [applause] >> Are you all excited
for this conversation this afternoon?

00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:34.397
>> My question is, what do you say to the
workers who feel that their jobs will be

00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:40.000
outdated in the next 5 years? And what
skills should they be focusing on?

00:04:40.340 --> 00:04:43.677
>> [clears throat] >> Anyone
who says they're only excited or

00:04:43.760 --> 00:04:48.077
only fearful about AI is something not
being very thoughtful. I don't think

00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:52.157
it's two camps. I think there's two
groups of people based on whether you're

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.077
90% excited and 10% fearful or

00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:58.477
90% fearful and 10% excited. But, as

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:03.277
with any change of this magnitude
happening this quickly

00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:08.717
and with this much unknown, this much
promise, this much obvious peril, it's

00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:12.597
you have to be somewhere on that spectrum.
You can't You can't be sort of at

00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:15.317
at either end. >> [clears throat] >> Um

00:05:15.400 --> 00:05:18.157
a big part of that is what the impact on

00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:21.637
jobs is going to be. And

00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:25.437
I will caveat this with one of the other
things by AI by saying that no one

00:05:25.520 --> 00:05:29.557
really knows, including us. There
will be many surprises. Some jobs will

00:05:29.640 --> 00:05:31.397
probably go away.

00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:36.917
Many jobs will not change
as much as it seems like they

00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:40.877
should uh with AI because
we have, you know, we

00:05:40.960 --> 00:05:45.157
want someone else to be doing that.
We still want a human doctor to tell us

00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:48.837
things even if they we know
that AI guess better advice or any

00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:53.357
many other set of examples.
Um or, you know, entrepreneurs

00:05:53.440 --> 00:05:57.157
will still start companies. They'll just
grow faster. They'll do more. They'll be

00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.997
more productive to existing jobs.
Every time in history that there's been a

00:06:01.080 --> 00:06:04.837
major technological shift,
we have underestimated

00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:07.517
how quickly the new jobs were going
to come and how different they were going

00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:12.517
to be. It'd be very hard to think about
my job, for example, before computers were

00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:14.757
invented. Um impossible
to [clears throat] think

00:06:14.840 --> 00:06:17.677
about my job before, say,
the Industrial Revolution.

00:06:17.760 --> 00:06:21.477
Um there are jobs now that are incredibly

00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:25.197
good jobs that didn't exist as a
category 20 years ago, even. But we

00:06:25.280 --> 00:06:28.757
never run out of things to do. We have
never gotten to the sort of like thing

00:06:28.840 --> 00:06:32.197
that people have theorized for for
centuries now, which is technology's

00:06:32.280 --> 00:06:35.437
going to progress so much that we just
sit around and do nothing. We find new

00:06:35.520 --> 00:06:38.437
things to do. We find new
ways to express our creativity.

00:06:38.520 --> 00:06:42.077
Um we find new ways to be useful
to each other. We find new ways to,

00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:45.557
you know, gain status,
or whatever it is. Many of you

00:06:45.640 --> 00:06:48.477
will eventually do jobs
that don't exist today,

00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:52.637
even only as a concept.
It doesn't mean that the transition is

00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:54.717
not painful. I expect for many people

00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:56.917
that it will be very painful. As society

00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:02.237
gets richer, hopefully, I hope we find
new socio-economic models to make it

00:07:02.320 --> 00:07:05.197
less painful. But I'm less
worried about the long-term

00:07:05.280 --> 00:07:09.077
future. I think people find new
things to do in not very long.

00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:14.437
>> How would you rethink uh health
and AI in a country like India?

00:07:14.520 --> 00:07:15.757
>> I don't have these
intentions to improve

00:07:15.840 --> 00:07:18.197
health. I don't have it
connected to anything.

00:07:18.280 --> 00:07:21.917
I type in lots of notes. Every time I
get like a blood test or something, I

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:24.117
upload it. Every time I have symptoms, I

00:07:24.200 --> 00:07:26.677
type it in. It works really well without

00:07:26.760 --> 00:07:29.237
medical records. Um we'd love to connect

00:07:29.320 --> 00:07:31.997
to any platforms that emerge in India as

00:07:32.080 --> 00:07:35.637
important platforms, but one of a huge

00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:38.477
volume of chat GPT is health-related

00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:43.797
queries, and with no connectors at all,
we've worked to make it very clear.

00:07:43.880 --> 00:07:46.677
Man, I'm going to insist
this this talk is not recorded.

00:07:46.760 --> 00:07:52.120
I >> [laughter] >> I think
listening to old people

00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:03.437
I think your your parents obviously love
you more than anyone. They're extremely

00:08:03.520 --> 00:08:07.157
well-meaning. Um for advice
about how to live a happy

00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:12.357
life or how to be a a good person, there's
no one who should listen to them more.

00:08:12.440 --> 00:08:16.597
More than your parents. Um but

00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.477
for a predictor of what the world's
going to be like going forward,

00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:23.237
um I wouldn't trust me for having good

00:08:23.320 --> 00:08:27.717
intuition at the rate of change. Young
people always figure this out the best.

00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:30.717
And the world you are all inheriting is

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:34.957
going to be very different. And you'll
have to quickly develop your own

00:08:35.040 --> 00:08:36.837
intuitions and trust them.

00:08:36.920 --> 00:08:41.237
Um but I think traditional career advice

00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:42.757
is probably not going to work as well.

00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:46.397
>> So, will the next billion-dollar
AI company come from India?

00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:49.080
>> I hope so.

00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:52.437
>> Most overrated fear about AI?

00:08:52.520 --> 00:08:56.160
>> [clears throat] >>
Killer robots in the streets.

00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.277
>> Most underrated opportunity?

00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:01.757
>> Zero-person companies.
>> Bigger change in 5 years, education or

00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.597
health care? >> Education.

00:09:05.680 --> 00:09:08.757
>> And last, one skill every IIT

00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:13.397
>> I hope so. >> Last question,
one skill every IIT

00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:15.237
student should build this year.

00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:17.987
>> Resilience. >> Resilience. Wonderful.

00:09:18.070 --> 00:09:22.320
>> [applause] >> Thank you.

00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:25.440
>> Is it about
