From what I read, he stated that even the coming of computers in the first place threatened many jobs, also many fresh graduates felt probably the same way back then, but everything worked out in the end.

"everything works out in the end"
lol that should fill them with hope and confidence. great speech.
Everything worked out in the end for Eric Schmidt because he rode computers to billionaire status.
It did not always work out so great for the people who were replaced, and the people who were replaced were a much smaller percentage of the workforce than the tech CEOs are claiming will be replaced by AI.
People largely go to college to train for the white collar jobs that tech CEOs are claiming are going to be entirely replaced by LLMs, where's the hope for the people that just spent six figures learning how to do jobs that people like Schmidt are trying their hardest to eliminate?
Everything worked out in the end? Are we living on the same planet?
