AI

“The problem I have is that if a human gets inspired by something, that's okay, because we're rate limited at a particular speed, but an AI can go crawl through the entire internet and be trained on the entire internet and beat everyone.”

“That's the best reason also to work on AI, because AI is going to amplify human intelligence. I mean, the overall intelligence of humanity, if you want. So I think that that's the key to solving a lot of the problems that we have.”

“This is what a lot of us consider the next Challenge in AI. So basically have systems that can learn how the world works by watching videos.”

“Not anytime soon. Which is funny because that's not paid as much as someone gets paid to write code today, right? So it's a, it's like, it happens in the reverse way. Like everybody wants to think what they do is the one that's the one that's going to be taken…”

“What you're suggesting is like an AI that not only learns and trains on stuff that the humans throw at it, but also like decides what to do next in terms of how to make itself better. Recursive self-improvement. That is not correct yet.”

“I think that layer is still not taken off, but it's certainly something that's waiting to happen because as you can clearly see, software creation is getting a lot easier. So someone's going to be able to be that platform for deploying all these things in a se…”

“The, let's say, 20 years from now, AI will have changed things enough that, you know, that just this pure capitalistic framework probably won't explain much because as AIs, both as sort of white-collar type work and as blue-collar workers, the robots will get …”

“The insight that computing would become free You know, for my generation, there were very few people who saw that. And so I, you know, I had an advantage because that implied a lot of things that, that Microsoft could get out and in front of. Now this current …”

“I'm sure this is going to come bite me in the future, but on the short side, services has to be a short. By definition, the whole idea of services is that we deploy humans towards repetitive tasks where we sell intelligence or process. With people. If the impe…”

“Over time, I think applications will become applications for one instead of generic applications.”

“Repetitive tasks are gonna get easily overtaken by AI, and that's kind of the, its contribution to society in the next two to three years, which directly targets, targets the early in career part of people's lives, and the part where they're trying to go pay t…”

“The differentiation is solving the unknown problem.”

“Almost certainly, with no doubt, there isn't a job where AI won't be able to do 80% of 80% of all jobs. So, 80% of all jobs, AI will be able to do most of it within the next three to five years.”
