1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Microsoft has been working on AI for decades and chatnots 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: actually aren't anything new, but all of a sudden everyone 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: is salivating. Why do you think the moment for AI 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: is now? Yeah, I mean it's actually you're absolutely right, 5 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: which is AI has been here in fact its mainstream, right, 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, search is an AI product, even the current 7 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: generation of search, every news aggregation, recommendation, and you know 8 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: YouTube or e commerce or TikTok or all AI products, 9 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: except they're all I would say, today's generation of AI 10 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 1: is all autopilot. In fact, it's a black box that 11 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: beaches sort of use that is dictating in fact, how 12 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: our attention is focused. Whereas going forward, the thing that's 13 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: most exciting about this generation of AI is perhaps we 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: move from autopilot to copilot, where we actually prompted. I mean, 15 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: think about it, right, what we are learning to program 16 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: AI as with just natural language, right, and it gets 17 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: smarter every time you use it. Yeah yeah, and also 18 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: you are making it. It's just it's ultimately a stochastic 19 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: machine that you're using as a tool to help reason 20 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: about what you're learning, what you're creating, what you're doing. 21 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: And so yes, I think this shift from autopilot to 22 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: copilot is actually, yes, the next phase of AI, which 23 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: in fact is perhaps going to put us as humans, 24 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: you know, more in the center of using AI to 25 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: our benefit. With Copilot, you are deeply weaving lams across 26 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: all of Microsoft's products Word, Excel, power Point, Outlook. You're 27 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: also basically giving folks their own personal business chatbot. How 28 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: transformative a change do you think this will be in 29 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: how we work? Yeah? To me, that is it right. 30 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: Having built now up Copilot, having built the web co 31 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: pilot with being, and even what we did with Dynamic, 32 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: this is the big next step for us to put 33 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: it in the tools everybody uses every day for their work. 34 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: I think it does three things emily for me. You know, 35 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 1: one of the things that I've always said is, God, 36 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: there's so much functionality in Word or Excel and PowerPoint. 37 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: How do we make it such that people use this 38 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: in powerful ways to create great content, great documents, great 39 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: PowerPoint art, learn how to do analysis that's pretty sophisticated 40 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 1: in an interesting way. Now without having to say, let 41 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: me learn all the commanding of office, I just literally 42 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 1: can use natural language. So the power of thirty plus 43 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: years of office creation, the sophistication of these tools is 44 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: just available to every user. Same thing with even teams 45 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: and teams co pilot. I think about how meetings can 46 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: be more effective team's co pilot, But I think the 47 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: probably the biggest difference maker will be business chat because 48 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: if you think about the most important database in any 49 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: company is the database underneath all of your productivity software. 50 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: Accept that data is all siloed today, But now I 51 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: can queriate with natural I can say, oh, I'm going 52 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: to meet this customer. Can you tell me the last 53 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: time I met them? Can you bring up all the 54 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: documents that are written up about this customer and summarize 55 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: it so that I'm current on what I need to 56 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: be prepped for that ability to interrogate that database, queriate 57 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: and do it without learning some new syntax of querying language. 58 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: But just natural language is super powerful. How do you 59 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: make sure it's not clippy two? Point out that it 60 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: is helpful, delightful, doesn't want to make me click out 61 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: a sap. There are two sets of things. One is 62 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: you know if you're laughing, because because look like our 63 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: industry is full of lots of you know, examples from 64 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: clippy to even let's a current generation of these assistants 65 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: and so on, they all griddle. I think there are 66 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: two things that this generation of way I do. One 67 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: is when we say they understand natural language, they truly 68 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: understand natural language. So it's not like, Okay, we'll understand 69 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: you only if you stay in sort of these very 70 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: narrow rails that we've defined for you. Then the comprehension 71 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: and what they can do for you right is also 72 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: not narrow, and so I think that's why. But that said, 73 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: I think we are also going to have to learn 74 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: that ultimately these are tools. They're stochastic in nature. Just 75 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: like anytime somebody sends me a draft, I review the draft, 76 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: I just don't accept the draft. We will do that 77 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: like interesting enough, we learn a lot and get up 78 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: co pilot. In fact, that first time we get up 79 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: copiot came even softa abouper saying oh yeah, this does 80 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: make mistakes, except in even a few months people say, 81 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: oh yeah, but I know how to correct those mistakes. 82 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: And so that ability to work with this co pilot, 83 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: give it feedback, know how to verify it. Even this 84 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: chain of thought, reasoning and excel. Like the one feature 85 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this, but that is 86 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: very cool, which is we said, okay, what's the design 87 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: choice we can make so the users get in the 88 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: habit of not just accepting whatever AI is saying, but 89 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: even ask it to show you it's scratch bad work. Right. 90 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: It's literally like inspecting somebody's homework, right, which is, hey, 91 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: tell me exactly how you did this and so that 92 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: I can verify. Those are the kinds of things that 93 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: we learn. You're trying to reinvent search with this AI 94 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: powered thing, and I believe it's been using GPT for 95 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: for a while. Now what's worked? What has it? I 96 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: think what they're too. One thing that we're learning is 97 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: the search context, right, So conversational search is a thing. 98 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: So this grounding of your conversation with search data, I 99 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: think is one mode. And then there is a completely 100 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: different mode that we're also learned, which is people just 101 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: want to chat. And so we are now getting good 102 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: at even the product design so that we make that 103 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: an explicit choice. So for example, when we launched Being, 104 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: we didn't have these three modes. We now have how 105 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: precise do you want it to be? Or how creative 106 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: you want to be or you want to be? Balanced 107 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: that I think is one of the biggest learnings we 108 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: launched it at Oh Wow. People do, in fact want 109 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: to engage even in what is chat inside of search 110 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: in different ways, and we've got to put the user 111 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: control back. How much market share do you think you 112 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: can really take from Google? Like prediction? Give me. We 113 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: are a real I'm thrilled to be in search. We're 114 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: a very small player in search, and I look forward 115 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: to every inch we gain is a big game. You're 116 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,559 Speaker 1: coming for Search, They're coming for Office. They're now putting 117 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: AI in there. You know, Google Docs and cheets and Gmail. 118 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: Are we just going to see you and Sundar are 119 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: trying to one up each other every week in this 120 00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 1: race to greatness. You know, I just warnt bardon being 121 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: both to thrive. I just want Google work Space and 122 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: Microsoft three six five both to thrive. I mean, look, 123 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the fun part of 124 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: being in this industry and competing is but you know, 125 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: it's the innovation and competition. Is the last time I 126 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: checked off a fantastic thing for users and the industry, 127 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: and so yeah, so let there be good sort of 128 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: you know, good innovation coming. And I think you know, 129 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: Google's going to do you know, is a very innovative 130 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: company and uh, and we have a lot of respect 131 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: for them, and I expect us to compete in multiple categories. 132 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: In my decade plus covering Microsoft, I can't remember you 133 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: releasing this much in quick succession. Why is it all 134 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: happening so fast? Yeah, it's you know, it's sort of 135 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: sometimes it feels it's all happening fast. It's we started 136 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: working on this, you know, good four years ago, right, 137 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: I mean in some sense, if you think about when 138 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: open ai and Microsoft came together and said, hey, this 139 00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: next generation of large language models need infrastructure. Let's build 140 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: the infrastructure, tune the infrastructure, Let's understand even what AI 141 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: safety and alignment looks like for these what are the 142 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: use cases? And this has been four years plus in making. 143 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: So once we started seeing the scaling effects, the promise 144 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: of the emergent capabilities, even that started showing up in 145 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: these large language models. That's why last years in fact 146 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: that perhaps for me, the application of these large language 147 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: models inside or get up Copilot was the big it's 148 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: the biggest LM product out there today, and so that 149 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: gave us confidence that hey, we now can apply it 150 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: in more context. So yes, it feels that we've launched 151 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: a lot of things just in a hurry this year, 152 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: but it's been four years in the making, and obviously 153 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: it's a great partnership with open AI. Microsoft just reportedly 154 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: laid off a team focused on ethical and responsible AI. Meantime, 155 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: you've got the Center for Humane Technology calling the too 156 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: AI a RaSE to recklessness. How do you respond to that? 157 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, in terms of impact on 158 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: anybody at Microsoft, this is just probably the thing that 159 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: weighs on me heavily, because after all, any restructuring is hard, 160 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: hard on the people who are mostly impacted. That said, 161 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: two things. One is this is no longer a side 162 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: thing for Microsoft, right because in some sense, whether it's design, 163 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: whether it's alignment, safety, ethics, it's kind of like saying quality, 164 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: performance and design, core design. So I can't have now 165 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: an AI team on the side. It's all the mainstream. 166 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: It's sort of like there's no get up. There's no 167 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: get up without copilot. There is no Microsoft three six 168 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: five without co pilot. So in some sense, the hard 169 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: process of companies like ours are going to constantly go 170 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: through a lot of change, and what you as something 171 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: that was done on the side today is now mainstream. 172 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: So that's what's happening. And then I think, if anything, debate, 173 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: dialogue and scrutiny on what is the space of innovation? 174 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: Is it really creating benefits for society? I think are absolutely, 175 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: and I'll welcome it. Right, I look at them and say, 176 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: no one can run faster than the benefits to the 177 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: broader society. And then the norms that we enforce as 178 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: a democratic society on any technology. And so I feel 179 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: like we are at the very early stages of it. 180 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: So I will ask us to be open to it, 181 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: but at the same time scrutinize it and let's have 182 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: a dialogue on what the benefits are. And in that context, 183 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: let's also recognize, especially with this AI, well why were 184 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: we not asking ourselves, like the AI that's already in 185 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: our lives, and how what is it doing? It's right 186 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: we've gone straight to say, oh, wow, these lns have 187 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: some hallucination. Guess what. Right, there's a lot of AI 188 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: that I don't even know what it's doing. And except 189 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: I'm happily clicking away and accepting the recommendations. So why 190 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: don't we in fact educate ourselves to ask all of 191 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 1: what AI is doing in our lives and say how 192 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: to do it safely in our line way. Elon Musk, 193 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: who co found it open ai and then left, has 194 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: said it's not what he intended. It is closed, sourced 195 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: and effectively controlled by Microsoft. How would you respond? Look, 196 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, first of all, open ai cares 197 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: deeply about their mission and doing it in the most 198 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: safe way and in the most open way. And in 199 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: some sense there's an interesting trade between openness and safety. 200 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: So that is sort of one of the reasons why 201 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: they have what they have in terms of their governance, 202 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: architecture and you know, and so therefore at some level 203 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 1: they have been very very clear on what principles drive them. Similarly, 204 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: we have been very very clear on the principles that 205 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: drive us around AI safety and responsibility, and we'll stick 206 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: to them. I have to ask you a question about 207 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: the economy and whether you're concerned about a prolonged tech bust. 208 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we've seen the collapse of three banks over 209 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: the course of the last week, including Silicon Valley Bank, 210 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: tighter money, more uncertainty. How are you thinking about this? 211 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I think at the highest or levels. I 212 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: think there was an aberration of maybe a ten year 213 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: period of low interest rates and everything that came with it, 214 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: not just in tech but in the broader economy. And 215 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: I just think that we're just getting back to normal, 216 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: like at least the thing that perhaps we have to 217 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: remind ourselves. Mostly the world looked like this, which is 218 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: interest rates were higher than zero. Inflation was perhaps maybe 219 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: structurally going to be higher, just given everything that's happening 220 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: with supply chains in the geopolitics, and we all as 221 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: businesses have to be accountable to how to manage in 222 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: that environment, and tech is one sector. And so I 223 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: kind of look at this and say, hey, it's a 224 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: return to normal as opposed to anything sort of that 225 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: to be we need to be worried about as being prolonged. 226 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: In fact, this is the long run. The economies have 227 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: to sort of be, you know, more real. All right, 228 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: So this is normal to you, I think. So, I mean, 229 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: I think that sometimes we sort of say, you know, 230 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: the last ten years can never be sort of the 231 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: way way forward on and it's good. I think it's 232 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: better to have businesses that are run efficiently, that are 233 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: actually measured on the way both whether it's on the 234 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:41,719 Speaker 1: societal impact or on real economic impact. In nineteen ninety five, 235 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 1: Bill Gates Centemmo calling the Internet a title way if 236 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: that would change all the rules and was going to 237 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: be crucial to every part of the business, is AI 238 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: and epic. Yeah. I mean, in fact, I sort of 239 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: say the chat GPT when it first came out was 240 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: like when Mosaic first came out I think in ninety 241 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: three as the first browser. And so yes, it does 242 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: feel like you know, to the Bill Memo in nineteen 243 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: ninety five, It does feel like that to me. So 244 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: it's as big as the enter. I think it's as big. 245 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: It's just like in all of these things, right we 246 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: in the tech industry or you know, classic experts and 247 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: over hyping everything. So the question is can we really 248 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: like I hope at least that What motivates me is 249 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: I want to use this technology to truly do what 250 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: I think at least all of us are in tech 251 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: for which is democratizing access to it. So when someone 252 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: says to me, hey, here is how a farmer in 253 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: rural India, you know, can use this technology to express 254 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: a complex thought on how to get a subsidy from 255 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: a government program and can do that successfully. That gives 256 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: me a lot of sort of you know, hope. How 257 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: confident are you that Microsoft is going to catch the wave? Look? 258 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: We are you know, at the end of the day, 259 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: my confidence is high only if I can do useful 260 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: things every day for users. So in other words, what 261 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: we did with being, what we did with getub copilot, 262 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: and what we're about to now do with Microsoft three 263 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: six five copilot is what gives me confidence. Ultimately, it's 264 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: not about my confidence, but it's about the products people 265 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: use and find useful. I want to ask about jobs 266 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: because obviously Microsoft makes software that helps people do their jobs, 267 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: and I wonder if AI laid in software, we'll put 268 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: some people out of jobs. Sam Altman has this idea 269 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: that AI is going to create this kind of utopia 270 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: and generate wealth that's going to be enough to cut 271 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: everyone a decent size check, but eliminate some jobs. Do 272 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: you agree with that? You know? Look, I mean you 273 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: know from Kenes, do I guess? Altman? They've all talked 274 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: about the two day work week, and I'm looking forward 275 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: to it. But the point is, Look, the lump of 276 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: labor fallacy has never proven out right, which is in 277 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: some sense there is displacement, and in fact of anything, 278 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: what we have to do is really do a fantastic 279 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: job as a society to deal with any displacement. Because 280 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: one job turns into another job, you have to then 281 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: skill people on an other job. And in fact, in 282 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: an interesting way, here's one thing even in this Microsoft 283 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: three six five tool, like, there's this power automate tool. 284 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: Up to now we've called it the low code no 285 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: code tool for doing workflo automation. Interestingly enough, you now 286 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: can automate workflows just using natural language. Guess what that means. 287 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: Anybody who's in the front lines in healthcare and retail 288 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: can automate or be part of the IT journey. That 289 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: to me gives means their new jobs and better wage support. 290 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: So I feel, yes, there's going to be some changes 291 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: in jobs. There's going to be some places where there 292 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: will be wage pressure, there will be opportunities for increased 293 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: wages because of increased productivity. We should look at it 294 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: all and at the same time being very clear eyed 295 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: about any displacement risk because that one thing that we've 296 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: also learned in the last twenty years is that any 297 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: society that doesn't really pay attention to who are the 298 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: winners and the losers, and to make sure that as 299 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 1: a society we are not really you know, imbalanced in 300 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: it in terms of economic opportunity, will be better off. 301 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: I think a lot about my kids and how AI 302 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: will have something that I don't, which is an infinite 303 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: amount of time to spend with them, and how these 304 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: chatpots are so friendly, and how quickly that could turn 305 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: into an unhealthy relationship or you know, maybe it's nudging 306 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: them to make a bad decision. As a parent, does 307 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: any part of that scare you? So that's kind of 308 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: one of the reasons why I think this moving from 309 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: autopilot to this copilot hopefully gives us more control, whether 310 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 1: it's as parents are more importantly, even as children. Like 311 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: one of the things that was very cool yesterday to 312 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: see in the launch of GPT four was the demo 313 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: or the launch of Khan Academy stuff. And sal sent 314 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: me this last night and I was looking at his 315 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: algebra class. It was so engaging, right, I mean, think 316 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: about it, like one of the dreams we've always had 317 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: is can I have a personalized tutor that is engaging, 318 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: that is actually trying to teach me so to yours point, 319 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: I think maybe we should, of course be very very 320 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 1: watchful of what happens. But at the same time, I 321 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: think this generation of bots, in this generation of AI, 322 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: probably just go from engagement to more giving us more 323 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: agency to learn. It's fascinating such a NATA. Thank you, 324 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: thank you for watching us.
