Satya Nadella & Sam Altman: Dawn of the AI Wars | The Circuit with Emily Chang

On this episode of The Circuit, Emily Chang sits down with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella to hear how AI is shaking up the competition for search. Nadella argues that this new wave of technology is as big as the web browser or the iPhone. Chang also speaks with former OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to discuss his company (which has some help from Microsoft), its ambitions and the latest on ChatGPT.

Love Sam's final words. Don't trust a company or person. We need to decentralize the board.

Satya COMPLETELY skirted the question about laying off the ethics team.

Great interviews from Emily Chang. She has a way of disarming her guests while still eliciting answers on very deep AI questions. It also shows the emotional intelligence these type of tech CEOs have. Emily confronted them several times on various issues and they just kept their cool. Lessons for us all.

[brianjanson]

This is a wonderful interview. Both are at the top of their game.

[letusshine]

as usual .. loved listening to Satya Nadella, shares his perspective of things with his unique energy levels.

[haseebarshad]

More interviews should be conducted like the one Emily Chang just did. Sam Altman is at the forefront of the AI world stage, and his talks are always super impressive and eloquent.

What a Mature Interview by Bloomberg. Totally impressed.

[MichaelFergusonVideos]

Great interview and impressive responses from both Satya Nadella and Sam Altman. I am looking forward to seeing how this plays out -- hoping to ride along on this wave.

[AlexanderTripp]

Es increíble, estoy muy emocionado por los años que vienen, espero que todos estemos muy bien con esto.

[jasonhoman]

Wow he really dodged that layoff of the A.I. ethics team by saying, no one asks if other companies have ethics teams or have a clue what’s going on under the hood.

[freatythedreary]

Both of them are very eloquent and interesting to listen to, love it

[tpysrem]

Sam has a unique perspective on either the AI structure built up, or even cutting in the complexity issues with amazing compression. Like what he made out to the answer and that matters because 🎉

17:15 - yes, totally agree with this. Learning to code is learning a way to think. Or, depending on which paradigm(s) and language(s) you code in, multiple ways to think. But in general it's a way of thinking both abstract and very concrete about solving problems, and to do that you need a toolkit of supportive skills, like problem analysis, how to break down or build up solutions to/from components (if the problem is of any non-trivial size), and formal logic to some extent.
I'd say out of all things I've studied or learned, programming (not the first year intro to programming, but completing a set of courses that formed a degree) is the most significant and broadly applicable skillset i have. It gives you mental tools to deal with all problems and figure out what the problem actually is and what you need in order to solve it.

When it comes to AI's interaction with children and its capacity to harness their imaginative and innovative minds, My optimism is unwavering.

[anuraga]

Emily makes the conversations quite light and heavy at the same time for other person sitting in front.😅

[TechMoneyInsights]

We agree with the idea of AI being a copilot. This kind of helps in regulating a lot of risks in AI

[kellywang]

Interesting interviews and great questions raised by Emily Chang

[dwylhq]

22:40 Emily: “why should we trust you?”
Sam: “you shouldn’t”.

[EnronnSierra]

He listed all the upside benefits, but look at an even more recent phenomenon, smart phones and the Internet. Steve Jobs meant for the iPhone to be a communication device, yet we spend more time dead scrolling instead of striking up a conversation with the person next to us on the subway. Social media has pretty much destroyed all socialization, there are people who just scroll endlessly looking at everyone else's best life and not actually using it to make and maintain connections. The Internet has many upsides, but surely is not a replacement for in person interaction, actually learning how to do something with your hands or being outside. Its so ridiculous when you look back at even Mark Zuckerberg was thinking with that Metaverse crap. I think AI is on a similar path.

23:13, "the board could fire me", they sure did
