Some classes of jobs will be handed over to the ‘immigrants’ of AI and Robotics, but more will have been generated.

Disputed The quote is authentic and the Elon source attributes it to JP Rangaswami, but the stored text is truncated and therefore not verbatim as written: on the source page the sentence continues after “generated” with additional text ending “continue to fall.” Elon’s official 2014 survey index lists this AI/robotics report as released on August 6, 2014.

Disputed Elon’s credited 2014 survey page and Pew’s 2014 report both attribute this statement to JP Rangaswami, but the source text does not end at “generated.” It continues with “in creative and curating activities …,” so the submitted version is a truncated/altered excerpt rather than a verbatim quote as written.

AI Verified Web search confirms this is a verbatim excerpt from JP Rangaswami's response in the 2014 Pew Research/Elon University survey "AI, Robotics, and the Future of Jobs," which matches the source URL. The full quote continues "...generated in creative and curating activities as demand for their services grows exponentially..." The truncation preserves the meaning. Vote alignment is correct (for "AI will create more jobs than it destroys"). Year (2014) is correct. Searched for a 2025/2026 replacement quote but could not find one with a primary source. Could not WebFetch the source URL (HTTP 403) but search confirms the quote and attribution. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
