Comment by Aaron Levie

Co-founder and CEO of Box; cloud software entrepreneur and prominent AI commentator
Why will AI create more jobs in plenty of industries? It's because we're going to use AI to accelerate output in one area, and then eventually you run into a new bottleneck somewhere else in the process that still requires humans.

AI Verified I found the exact sentence reproduced and attributed to Aaron Levie in multiple sources tied to the April 16, 2026 X post: a republished Benzinga/Sahm Capital item shows the blockquote verbatim and credits “— Aaron Levie (@levie) April 16, 2026,” Tech Twitter’s mirror of Levie’s post repeats the same sentence under his account, and an independent newsletter quotes the same line as Levie’s. The wording matches the submitted quote aside from normal curly/straight apostrophe differences.
