🧠 Arthur Mensch 认为，AI 对人类的最大风险是“去技能化”，而非大规模裁员。他认为，人们过度依赖 AI 搜索信息可能导致变得懒惰。

✍️ Mensch 强调，人类需要积极参与审查和批判 AI 的输出，以避免“去技能化”的风险。他认为，保持人类的积极参与对于持续学习至关重要，不能将 AI 的输出视为“真理”。

💡 Mensch 认为，AI 将改变白领工作，而不是取代它们。他预测，由于 AI 难以替代人际关系任务，未来将需要更多的人际交往技能。

🗣️ Mensch 批评了其他科技公司高管对 AI 威胁的过度担忧，认为这可能是一种营销策略。他回应了关于 AI 在五年内可能取代一半入门级白领工作的警告，认为这“非常夸张”。

Mistral AI CEO Arthur Mensch says warnings about AI's impact on white-collar workers are overblown.He says the biggest risk AI poses to humans is "deskilling."Mensch said humans needed to remain actively involved in reviewing AI output to keep learning.

As tech leaders continue to debate the potential impact of artificial intelligence on the job market, one CEO says the technology's biggest risk may be "deskilling."

In an interview with The Times of London, Arthur Mensch, the CEO of the Paris-based firm Mistral AI, dismissed the idea that AI would lead to huge cuts to white-collar jobs, saying the bigger risk was that people may become progressively lazier as they increasingly rely on the tech to search for information.

Speaking to the outlet at the VivaTech conference in Paris earlier this month, Mensch, who cofounded the open-source large language model developer alongside Guillaume Lample and Timothée Lacroix in April 2023, said that a key way to avoid this would be to ensure humans remained actively involved in reviewing and critiquing AI output.

"It's a risk that you can avoid, if you think of it from a design perspective, if you make sure that you have the right human input, that you keep the human active," he said, adding that he believed it was important humans did not take AI output as the "truth."

"You want people to continue learning," he continued. "Being able to synthesize information and criticize information is a core component to learning."

Mensch, a former Google DeepMind researcher, also responded to recent warnings that AI poses a threat to white-collar jobs, including from Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, who recently said that AI could replace half of all entry-level white-collar jobs within five years.

"I think it's very much of an overstatement," Mensch said, adding that he believed Amodei liked to "spread fear" about AI as a marketing tactic.

Instead, Mensch said he thought AI would change white-collar jobs. "I do expect that we'll have more relational tasks because that's not something you can easily replace," he said.
