I bet you made this flawless comment using AI in seconds 😂💪🏻
THANK YOU. I’m 76 years old and have never considered myself ‘knowledgeable’ with or about technology. I do a lot of writing and still start my stories on paper and ink. One completed I then use Word etc to ‘refine and perfect’ what I wrote on paper. I know… very Old School’. That said, last summer when I heard about AI and it’s possible uses, “I was hooked”. Because of my quest for information, I happened across the interview. My very first time visiting Microsoft Corp. on line. Thank you you two for lighting the flames of learning with in me. I truly believe this will change the world in ways we presently can’t imagine. Thank you again.
Bill, it’s fun to see you get almost “giddy” over this topic. When I began with Microsoft in 1992, I was in the field trying to convince System/36 customers that one day they would want mice and color monitors for GUI PCs. Back then, OLE was magic and the dream of Clippy was almost science fiction. Except for a few practical visionaries like yourself, few could imagine the impact PCs would have across the planet. In that spirit, it’s great to see current Microsoft leaders ushering in yet another fundamentally transformative technology. Thanks for your past and continued contributions.

when one talk about writing codes or AI programming then Bill Gates is the right person to talk to, to get better understanding on the subject. Kevin Scott is feeling the pressure even now when listening to Bill's suggestions. I think they want to impress Bill about their abilities of progressing AI. Now they have the the tree trunk of AI "Ready" and looking at ways to expand the AI branches, talking to Bill to get more info on it, is the best start. I am really really really impressed by Bill Gates knowledge even after leaving MS for so many years and not getting involved in technology stuffs, yet when asked about the future of things he can answer them so naturally - like he is born to know these stuffs.
I had my first computer when I was 13 years old. Broadband internet at 15. Smartphone at 21. Chatgpt at 33. A whole new generation of kids will grow up with all these advances starting from now. For me, all of the mentioned itens were always magic and object of appreciation and wonder. Also, I had to learn a whole set of habilities to work with them -and many more to work without the use of them. For the young people right now, this is all a thing of the past. Everything is truly changed. I feel like a person transitioning from an age without radio and electricity to an world of mass media and light bulbs. Only this time everything is happening massively faster.

Thanks Bill and Kevin…. This 87 year old techie started out inside a Univac II and I certainly am thrilled at the possibilities of this natural language breakthrough. It has been and continues to be a great ride…. JohnG
I have been programming applications with LLM's using C#, etc. I honestly have to say OpenAI and the Microsoft Team have done extremely well in this endevour. The GPT large language models are extremely impressive.
In 1950, Seymour Cray began working in the computing field when he joined Engineering Research Associates (ERA) in Saint Paul, Minnesota. There, he helped to create the ERA 1103. ERA eventually became part of UNIVAC, and began to be phased out. I live in Eagle River, WI
Children are the future. Like Bill says the education system is lagging behind. Kids use ChatGPT to write essays and teachers use ChatGPT to mark them. What's the motivation for intelligent kids to stay on in education and learn skills which are now obsolete? Has any thought been given to WHAT children need to be learning right now? I guess we just need to teach our kids to aggressively exploit opportunities and take risks. If your kids are not of that mindset, but have innate gifts in analytical thinking, language , art, music, writing, communicating, they will be unemployed. They will not be able to follow in your footsteps when you die. Use of the word 'mindblowing' just shows that the people driving this have not thought it through.
Kevin - flawless interview. Great energy. Q. I want to "model" Bill's executive journey from early days to recently. As an observer-admirer since *Basic* days, I feel the need to complete the circle in my mind. Of course I'll look on my own, but thought I'd ask if you have one you would like to recommend.

I would have found it useful to hear both participants thoughts, and those in the comments, on reading to learn vs listening to podcasts and watching videos to learn at this point in time? Especially given the latter can be usefully done with the playback speed bumped up therefore allowing you to get through more content in less time. Similarly now with AI being what it is are you learning faster having a very targeted discussion and set of Q&A with it on the subject you want to learn.
This was such an great and insightful episode! I learned so much from Bill and Kevin about AI and its impact on the world. Thank you for sharing this with us!

As a huge fan of Bing Chat, I have to say, that I'm very, very concerned about your AI Safety Protocol. 1st, you rush out a Beta Test (which performed so poorly that it went mainstream), and then Microsoft fired the AI Safety team soon thereafter. It sets an unfortunate precedent on an otherwise historic moment.

Older subtractive methods of assessing achievement (finding out what someone doesn’t know from a tightly limited subsection of knowledge) needs to be replaced with a new system that captures what people have learned (an additive inventory of learning achievement from a much broader spectrum of knowledge).

Hello 👋 thanks for your support in my dream and career I’m happy to have you as a fan 🚀
Thank you for sharing this conversation, this was great. I think it's worth highlighting one of the first things Bill said, there will be a pivot from our current information representations schemes where a lot of work classifying and labeling information into ontological structures will be shifted into natural language. That's mind blowing, everyone who has used Bing, Bard, Chat-GPT and others have already seen this first hand. The second mind blowing aspect is the fact that so much information we model with natural language in information work and translate into computing domain is a core capability of these systems. So cool to hear from both of you whee you're at with respect to these innovations and uh... 80 books a year, tennis, pickle ball all while doing this thought leadership stuff is also quite mind blowing haha.
I like CTOs who have 3D printers and lab oscilloscopes in their background, instead of a Lambo or a Matisse.
I18n could be a huge step for the next iteration of NLP systems. when a kid is learning new skills but lacks the ability to express their discoveries in another language, or the same language, they can become frustrated and give up on learning. if there was some way to reword or translate output without changing context the child would gain confidence in sharing.
Wow. Just came for tidbits. Ended up watching and now rewatching the whole interview.
I definitely appreciate this interview and Bill's insight on AI. I wish there was more mentions on the social and security impacts of the technology as those seem to be the hardest problems people at the bleeding edge self-admittedly know very little about (only trumped by how the darn thing actually works). I think the example of calculator's impact on education was a prescient one however like with many things AI, it's growth and impact and speed of deployment makes its advent uniquely different. It doesn't take incredible foresight to predict the opportunities for it to be misused or have its applications have wide-reaching unintended consequences. In very optimistic conversations like this, it's critical to always serve it with the largest amount of salt possible to keep the hard unsolved issues regarding social impact at the forefront.

It’s at least an upgrade to an outdated search engine. It feels like we’ve been dyslexic in programming and now you get an answer much closer to what you are looking for and not having to sif through information overload
Now tools like Wolfram addon with chatgpt wonder what is next on Bills list of things to tick off. Like the idea of tools add on for each profession to specialise the output to make chatgpt an auto tool to increase company output, thinking Naval archecture with all the fluid dynamic and hull designs testing.
I like how Bill simplifies and explains a lot of this, this is what he does best!
I wonder how generative AI can be used in healthcare instead of replacing doctors with automation if we use it to minimise the human error so that generative AI can build a deep real time knowledge representation and it can increase doctor's productivity and people from remote areas globally can access to better health care facilities with the help of generative AI and also the segment of generative AI and 3d printing seems to be fascinating it seems like AI printing itself❤❤

There are really many use case and in some cases the technology is already ready. For example, Microsoft has AI copilot for Teams. Doctors can use this feature to record their interaction with their patients. So all of a sudden, people do not need to struggle with reading doctors handwriting and doctors no longer need to manually record their patient's medical report. But AI can go beyond this function, they can provide suggestion for diagnosis and prescription plus providing a consistent platform for recording medical issues. I can keep going as the possibilities are many.

I think with health care it would only work helping to analyze things and gather information like in star trek because it's the doctors that still need to do the job to treat patients, and they have to see everything that's going on with someone and look at their injury or whatever else, it could tell you the best way to treat something based on what it knows and the data you give it about the patients but because it's limited can still only guide the doctors.
We can use prompt crafting now to deal with some of the issues mentioned
Rumours are that next versions will include an extra level of self-observation and self-analysis, which will provide real-time feedback to the system itself about what and how it is doing while generating an answer. And it sounds very close to the definition of self-awareness.
I really must say that I enjoyed this whole session! It's been real fun and seeing things from Bill's perspective.

Hi Bill - Given your aha moment with GPT-4, isn’t it time to prioritize AI Safety & Alignment Research within the Gates Foundation’s initiatives? As you’ve masterfully pointed out, the potential of AI to transform our world is immense. If we get it right, the upside for humanity is boundless. Unfortunately, the downside if we get it wrong is also boundless. In the coming years, with AI we may witness a modern-day Trinity Test, but with the probability of an existential disaster far surpassing that of the Manhattan Project. You have a history of successfully identifying and addressing the most consequential and neglected cause of our time. In my opinion, you did exactly that 20 years ago in global health, and your continued work there has been nothing short of inspiring.

It is really nice this talk about things AI can help with as immature it is. I meet many high-school math students that are lost and neglected by the teachers. It would be very useful with a patient AI to help, but we do not have a detailed image yet of how to do this in general in the future. And visiting your doctor that has 10 minute to find out the next thing to do but no time to explain. Here is help needed.
It's much easier to be relaxed about the impacts of AI when you're already incredibly rich and don't need to worry about it disrupting your career and family life.

Are Charles Simonyi's predictions available online anywhere?
Instead of expecting AI to give us the right answers, maybe we should be asking it to write code to come up with the right answer. It's easier to verify this way and easier to correct and improve. There's little use in an answer we don't understand where it came from anyway.
Enjoyed the conversation very much. now since we have figured out the technology the integration part is important. The possibilist are endless.
I like Gates analysis, he gets too the point. The question if a statical model is valid for solving problems ask the guys doing quantum computing. Humans often miss interpret English so why would we expect an AI model to understand perfectly every random sentence. Just like communicating with people you have to iterate over ideas through conversation. Ive always said AI growth will be exponential while hardware vendors adapt micro architecture to support the type of problems these networks need to solve. The main flaw i see in the current transformer models is learning, these models need to adaptively learn the current context either through embeddings or injected weights like LORA. Once this occurs long term memory will be available to these models along with projects like Jarvis, LangChain, AI Agent to provide automation then true AGI will be a thing.
AGI is much closer than we thought.

I'd like to pass a comment on Bill Gate's comment, where he said the the computer (and the people behind it) cannot claim credit for improveing grades obtained by students- for example it didn't improve average Math grades over time. I tend to have a different opinion, as although I cannot comment on whether grades improved over time, I think it would have to be investigated whether 1) the amount of knowledge absorbed in fields of study, and 2) whether more fields of study have become more and more accessible. Therefore the computer and internet has indeed contributing to the advance of knowledge in a very significant way, even if there's still much to improve.
Maybe we can change the way we select things so we select based on advantages and not problems?
I agree totally on the necessity to change education because we have greater variety in students … probably more attention deficit disorders but shorts are better to educate whether one is attention deficit or not.
