Tech entrepreneur Mark Cuban says the “AI age” is likely to change how people are trained for work, with immersive job simulators playing a central role. In comments reported by multiple outlets, Cuban draws an analogy to how commercial pilots and race car drivers are trained: instead of relying primarily on conventional onboarding, future workers may be prepared through simulated, scenario-based environments. He argues that companies could use AI-enabled systems to create these simulation platforms, allowing new hires to practice tasks and decision-making in a controlled setting before entering real-world roles. Cuban also suggests that organizations would bring in subject matter experts to help design and build the simulated environments so they reflect real job requirements. Overall, the outlets describe Cuban’s view that onboarding will shift from basic orientation and early instruction to structured, AI-driven training that can expose workers to a wider range of situations and strengthen skills before they perform duties on the job.
