Speech:

A very hearty Good [morning/afternoon], to everyone present here.


I’m Divy Dutt Kaushik persuing MBA from Master School of management,
Meerut and today I stand in favor of the motion that AI will create more
jobs than it will take away.

Let’s begin with a simple fact — technology has always transformed the
jobs and not destroyed them completely. When computers came, when
the internet came, people feared that it would take away the jobs. But what
happened?
New jobs were created — software engineers, web designers, digital
marketers, app developers etc.

History is going to repeat

The same is happening with the AI.

Yes, AI will automate some tasks.


But it will also create new types of work — work that is more creative,
more human-centric, and more meaningful.

Let me give you some examples.

AI needs people to:

 Build it – like AI developers and data scientists.

 Train it – like data analysts.

 Use it – like doctors using AI in diagnosis, or marketers using AI


to automate ads.

In fact, a report by the World Economic Forum said that AI will create 97
million new jobs by 2025 — more than the number it replaces.

So basically comparing the numbers of job creation and job destruction,


Former is high.

Let me ask you all:


Who will train AI to understand language? Humans.
Who will check if AI is giving the right answer? Humans.
Who will use AI to grow businesses? Humans.

In the United States, LinkedIn listed "AI specialist" as one of the fastest-
growing jobs.
In India, NASSCOM reports show over 4 lakh jobs in AI and related fields
will be created in the coming years.

AI is not our replacement. It is our assistant.

It can do boring, repetitive work — like data entry or scheduling — so


humans can focus on ideas, strategy, and creativity.

Think about this:

 In marketing, AI helps analyze data, but it cannot create emotions


in a campaign — we can.

 In education, AI can give lessons, but a teacher gives personal care


— only humans can do that.

 In healthcare, AI can scan reports fast, but only a doctor gives


empathy and support.

This means more opportunities, more digital jobs, and more


inclusive growth.

But yes, there’s one condition —


We need to prepare ourselves.
We need to learn the right skills – digital skills, communication,
critical thinking.

If we compare the curriculum of Btech in our country, two decades


back there were only three streams available(Civil, Mechanical and
Chemical). One decade back we had Cs,and electronics added. And
now, There are streams such as Btech in AI ML, Data analytics, data
science.

In agriculture, AI-powered tools help farmers detect crop diseases


early, monitor soil health, and optimize water usage. Companies need
technicians, drone operators, and data analysts for this.

In finance, AI is transforming banking through fraud detection and


personalized financial planning — and behind all these systems are AI
trainers, software engineers, and cybersecurity professionals.

In manufacturing, AI-powered robots are used for precision tasks, but


humans are still needed to program, maintain, and supervise them.

So yes, AI is creating a new ecosystem of employment.


So yes, jobs will change — but they will not disappear. They will evolve. And
we will evolve with them.

In fact, AI will create opportunities in rural areas too. People can work
from anywhere using AI tools. That means more jobs across India, not just
in big cities.

Also, let’s not forget:

Consulting companies are not just watching the rise of AI — they’re actively
embracing and driving it. Firms like McKinsey, BCG, Deloitte, and Accenture
are investing heavily in AI-powered solutions to help their clients become
more efficient and competitive.

We’re witnessing massive growth in edtech platforms like Coursera,


Udemy, Skillshare, and government initiatives like Skill India. These
platforms offer flexible, affordable, and job-oriented courses in fields like
data analytics, digital marketing, coding, and AI itself.

Let us not fear AI — let us learn it, use it, and lead it.

To conclude:
AI is not a job killer.
It is a job transformer.
And if we prepare ourselves with the right skills, AI will not take our jobs
— it will take our workload.

Thank you!
