CybarbieSatya hard-selling AI to Larry Fink and everyone at #wef 'If AI only benefits tech firms then it’s a bubble.' Microsoft $80bn capex this year, half of that outside the US (looking for cheap energy). But finger wagging at Europeans: energy prices are too high, pricing ourselves out, relaax guy don't be so obsessed about digital sovereignty (dude read the room this is Switzerland lol).
Steffen ChristensenHis nervous timbre tells me that he recognises that time is running out for AI adoption. So unlike Zuck he is not completely disconnected from reality. Investors and the general public at large will baulk at burning electrons if there is no tangible benefit outside tech. He started off with some fantasy tale about that one poor farmer with a smartphone and an internet connection in a field somewhere in rural India asking an AI for horticultural advice. With a straight face. *piggie snort laughs*
@nf3xn to be fair, Google's been playing that violin for more than a decade now.
