I wish we would stop giving so much importance to the opinions of guys like Gates. He doesn't have any specialist knowledge in this area, he's just stinking rich.
While I agree I don’t think it takes any specialist knowledge to say “AI gonna make things different/easy/harder”
so we should be asking Daft Punk
And he pioneered a shitty OS.
He was a ruthless tech bro who was in the right place at the right time.
Yeah, Gates bought QDOS (aka 86-DOS), to license it to IBM as MS DOS after his mom did the ground work of marketing him to the right people at IBM. And somehow people still respect him, as if he wasn't the proto-Elon.
He's a great business person, period. Like Steve Jobs, he didn't code but at least Jobs had a drive to make the best products he could.
