AWS CEO Garman pushes back on Anthropic's warning of AI wiping out white-collar jobs
Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman has publicly disputed Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's claim that AI could eliminate up to half of all entry-level white-collar jobs. Speaking on Casey Newton's Platformer podcast, Garman argued that AI will transform the nature of work rather than destroy it altogether. He drew a parallel with Microsoft Excel, suggesting that productivity tools historically reshape roles without making workers obsolete. As evidence of his confidence, Garman pointed to Amazon's plan to hire 11,000 fresh graduates in 2026, signalling the company's belief that job roles will evolve rather than disappear.
