Will AI Take My Job? Harsh Goenka Says AI Will Create New Winners

Amid widespread concerns about job losses due to AI, RPG Group Chairman Harsh Goenka recently shared an optimistic perspective: Artificial Intelligence will not eliminate work—it will reinvent it. His message is clear: AI is disrupting the workplace, but those who adapt will thrive.

What Harsh Goenka Said

In a viral post on X (formerly Twitter), Goenka outlined emerging job roles that AI will enable:

“Will AI take my job? What new jobs is AI creating? AI will disrupt work & reinvent it. There will be new jobs like prompt engineers, AI product managers, AI ethics specialists & the workplace landscape will change. New winners will be the smartest & most adaptable.”

Key Jobs Emerging in the AI Era

These roles highlight the growing importance of combining technical skills with human judgment.

What Industry Experts Are Saying

Other leaders echo Goenka’s view:

• Akash Ambani (Jio): AI will transform—not replace—jobs.
• C.P. Gurnani (Tech Mahindra): Generative AI will create more jobs than it replaces.

However, not everyone agrees:

• Mo Gawdat, ex-Google X: “The idea that AI will create new jobs is 100% crap.” He predicts white-collar collapse by 2027.

Social Media Reacts

Reactions to Goenka’s post were mixed:

• “AI won’t take your job, but someone who knows how to use AI might.”
• “We still need human empathy, ethics, and emotional intelligence.”
• Some skeptics warn of job losses in creative, IT, and back-office roles first.
