LinkedIn CEO on what you need to do if you don’t want AI to kill your job

LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky warns that workers face significant disruption as artificial intelligence transforms the job market, but says those who embrace uniquely human skills can survive the transition. “It’s Pollyanna to believe that this transition just easily occurs,” Roslansky said in a recent interview. “There’s going to be a ton of disruption. There’s going to be a ton of uncertainty along the way.”

The CEO, who has overseen LinkedIn’s growth from $7 billion to $17 billion in annual revenue over five years, said Amazon’s recent announcement that it expects workforce reductions due to AI adoption signals broader changes ahead. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy told employees this week that AI will reduce headcount as the company gains “efficiency gains from using AI extensively.”
