What was said

"I'm bold a little bit on this, on the fact that 30% of jobs would disappear by 2028, of some sectors, not all sectors. Some sectors will disappear by 2028."

Mo Gowdat, former Chief Business Officer at Google X, forecasted that up to 30% of jobs in sectors like call centers, graphic design, and entry-level white-collar positions will vanish by 2028 due to AI automation. He compared the severity to the Great Recession which saw 6% job losses, warning that economies are unprepared for this magnitude of disruption.
