I'll explain it even better, trying to find something useful for the AI to do is the same is trying to find something useful for humans to do. Think that one through. You see, in a room that used to be just you and the boss now includes these whole other new entity called AI. Your boss is really interested in this new thing. That is all.

Yes, but I think that is the exact attitude Satya's advising against: Where many leaders are looking inward to see how they can optimize their own businesses, they should be looking outward to see how they can improve the world.

  LOL! Does anyone think CEO's of major corporations are trying to improve the world? Honestly that's funny. Sorry if you really are this earnest. I wish you the best and hope you can maintain your outlook despite how disconnected from reality.

    Eh, I did say he's not necessarily better than the rest of them, just more aligned with the rest of us, likely because he's more forward-looking than the others. He's seeing the backlash against AI, the pushback against data centers, and the social turmoil on the horizon, and he's saying, "Maybe we should not piss all the people off."

    “LOL! Does anyone think CEO's of major corporations are trying to improve the world?” I think that there are some leaders who think about building a business in terms of providing value or an exchange of goods. I think there’s a fundamental difference to society between a ceo that abstracts their role as building a product people value, and one that sees their role as hacking the stock price. The first still may do terrible things, but I think a lot of modern problems in society stem from the fact that deregulation changed the incentives from (1) to (2), but I’m pro any conversation that tries to move us back towards 1
