With AI becoming a bigger part of everyday life, many parents and students are becoming worried about which careers and subjects will stay relevant in the future. However, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang believes parents should not stress too much about what their children choose to study in the AI era. ‘I think that it won’t matter. All the things that used to matter are still things that are going to matter in the future,’ he told Singapore’s Channel NewsAsia (via Business Insider).
SurveyInstead of searching for so-called AI-proof careers, Huang suggested that students should focus on learning how to use AI to improve their knowledge and skills. According to him, AI should be treated as a tool that can help people become better at what they already love doing.

Nvidia CEO also highlighted areas like journalism, storytelling, arts, and design as examples of fields that will continue to remain important. He said great interviewers are not successful only because they prepare well, but because they can stay engaged in the moment, listen carefully and respond naturally during conversations. ‘The ability to tell a story for an audience will remain just as important in the future as it is today,’ Huang said.
He also referred to the Japanese idea of ‘wabi-sabi,’ which focuses on the beauty of imperfections. Huang suggested that human flaws and uniqueness could become even more valuable in a future filled with AI-generated content.
‘Whatever you decide is your passion, the only one thing that you have to do is to make sure that you ask yourself: How can AI help elevate my learning, my craft, my purpose?’ he said.

Huang also addressed fears that AI could make people lazy or less intelligent. Comparing AI to earlier technologies like computers, the internet, and smartphones, he argued that technology has historically pushed people to do more instead of less. ‘Do we find ourselves busier or less busy? I think the answer is we found ourselves busier,’ Huang said.
