Silicon Valley madly Building artificial intelligence agents To increase human work. If such agents are working as intended, then a full set of Jobs can be extinct – or close to them. Artificial intelligence agents are preparing to remove customer service representatives, sales partners, executives, information technology assistants, young developers, and journalists.

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 job of millions of people who have no advanced degrees in AI 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.

He wants to see founders who build startups that use artificial intelligence to help people learn high -wage trading such as industrial electricity or commercial plumbers, or raise their level of 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 society that suffers from a lack of great work and is not good for anyone.”
