New Delhi: In a recent 6,000-word essay, the Microsoft co-founder called for some jobs to be protected as “human-reserved” roles, arguing that governments are not preparing quickly enough for the disruption AI could create in employment and society. Gates compares the idea to nature reserves. Just as certain areas are protected from development, he believes some forms of human work may need protection from complete automation.

That could increase productivity, but it could…
