Funnily I came across an interview from around 5 years ago where he straight up admitted that he had no clue how to generate a return on investment back then (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzcJlKg2Rc0&t=1920s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzcJlKg2Rc0&t=1920s)
"We have no current plans to make revenue."
"We have no idea how we may one day generate revenue."
"We have made a soft promise to investors that once we've built a general intelligence system, basically we will ask it to figure out a way to generate an investment return for you."
The fact he has no clue how to generate revenue with an AGI without asking it, shows his lack of imagination.
- flappyeagle 2y agoOr his honesty?
- slater 2y agoOr maybe both
- slashdave 2y agoWell, I mean the actual answer is raise more money from investors. But it is better to leave things up to the imagination of the listener.
- qnleigh 2y ago> The fact he has no clue how to generate revenue with an AGI without asking it... I wouldn't take this statement at face value any more than anything else a CEO says. For example, maybe he still had to appease the board, and talking about making profit would be counterproductive. Maybe he gave this answer because it signals that he's in it for the long game and investors should be too.
