I suppose this is true, but I'm talking about what these MBAs coming out of top-tier programs are all about. In my experience, they're not interested in technical challenges, they're interested in money and status. That is why the Economist can write headlines like this in the first place; in other words, why the "interests" of MBAs can shift at all. I don't think that legions of MBAs were going into investment banking because it was just so fascinating to them, and I don't think that's why they're gravitating to SV, either.
