Mark Cuban predicts AI will let workers train for jobs using simulators 'like pilots and race car drivers'

Mark Cuban is a tech billionaire. Julia Beverly/WireImage Mark Cuban says traditional employee training will be replaced by AI job simulators. The former "Shark Tank" star said workers will learn by navigating virtual workplace scenarios. Cuban said earlier this week that AI can't "read the room" or empathize like a human being. Hustling for work experience and learning from coworkers has been key to building a successful career for decades. Mark Cuban says that's bound to change. The tech billionaire and former "Shark Tank" investor said in an X post on Thursday that he expects the "next great AI application" to be a "job simulator." "How employees gain experience in a future AI world is going to be far different from today," he wrote. "Employees won't have as many touch points in the company to gain knowledge and experience from. That's where judgement has historically come from ."
