AI will not eliminate jobs; AI only creates jobs

Oracle Summary

Jensen Huang lands at 68/100 (heavy cope) for denial. Jensen Huang made an absolute categorical denial of AI-driven job displacement ('AI is doing nothing but create jobs') while dismissing concerns as 'complete nonsense.' The claim ignores documented productivity-wage decoupling, sectoral job losses, and the structural dynamics of automation. Huang deflects responsibility to workers ('someone who knows how to use AI taking your job') rather than addressing corporate adoption practices or policy gaps. As Nvidia's CEO selling AI infrastructure, the claim is self-serving. Strong direct attribution at a major industry conference warrants confidence above 0.72 despite conservative guidance.
