Bill Gates on why new A.I. changes everything - and his summit with Elon Musk and Sen. Schumer

Philanthropist, tech leader and billionaire Bill Gates talks with MSNBC’s Ari Melber in this wide-ranging interview about the Gates Foundation's new 2023 "Goalkeepers Report," including efforts to cut maternal mortality and deploy low-cost health technology; global poverty and climate change relief programs; Gates' recent high-level A.I. meeting with Sen. Schumer; the structure, promise and risks of “world-changing” artificial intelligence, and its impact on a range of jobs - including lawyers - plus Gates' call for higher, progressive taxation amidst rising inequality. Melber also reads an extensive text "created" by ChatGPT about Gates, for his response and assessment. This is the extended video of Gates' interview, which aired on MSNBC, and is Gates' third interview with Melber. (Gates previously appeared in the inaugural interview for Melber's "Summit Series" in 2021, where he discussed tech regulation, attacks on him and Dr. Fauci, systemic racism, tax policy and his reaction to being cited in so many rap songs.)

Other countries don't have these tech interventions and yet do better. The answer doesn't lie solely in better tech but in also understanding where we fail conventionally. Gates mentioning "scarce resources" points to one area. The medical system here is a broken mess.

[@billplaney2585]

The medical system is a broken mess thanks to our politics being so. He has no interest in politics (i.e., in being a politician); his only way to attempt to improve the politics is through our likewise broken system of campaign finance and lobbying. The only way I think we can break the grip the pharmaceutical and medical insurance powerhouses have on us is in communal action that (unfortunately) Americans are too individualistic to achieve - simply STOP USING INSURANCE. Find cash-only doctors and medical practitioners local to your home and use them. Leave the system and let it wither.

One of the problems with using AI for things like education (and other knowledge based things) is that it relies on what the training dataset is, and it 'fills in the gaps' without applying any critical thinking, it's just placing what would follow next. So, if a place like, say Texas, implements an AI based education system it can dictate that it must be trained on a Creationist database, and the AI will then teach based on that, never being able to ask if what it is teaching actually makes any sense as it can't do critical thinking. Who decides what datasets AI is trained on, and who does the hard work to verify that the AI is not making stuff up to fill in the gaps? This is already an enormous problem with people thinking they can use AI to answer questions... often they get completely wrong, but convincing sounding, results. As it stands, using AI to teach humans is a prefect way to spread a lack of critical thinking, an increase misinformation, and an in conspiracy theories and such due to this misinformation. AI is certainly useful, but the *way* in which it is used and trained is absolutely critical, and humans have a very bad track record when it comes to that sort of thing.

Thank you Bill Gates and your heartfelt foundation ❤

This is why the WGA and SAGAFTRA strikes are so important.

AI currently can not hold a candle to human creative writing; it's all boilerplate -- what we might call 'a hack'. I think creative writers using AI as a foundational tool helps to shortcut a start, but anyone who relies on an AI for creative work will have half-baked results. The human mind is needed to sort and develop what AI initially builds.

Inspirational - thank you

I asked Alexa if tea tree oil and eucalyptus oil were the same thing and she said, "yes". Well, I guess they are both oil, but... 😉

Loved Bill’s response on managing people towards end.

You’re sick!

The future of technology will be: Disruptive. Good bad or indifferent, it will be disruptive. Jobs will change. Jobs will go away and some will be created. Overall there will be fewer jobs and they will pay less, unless we legislate and unionize. An intensly progressive tax rate aimed at the largest wealth holders MAY manage to reduce the spiraling of wealth into fewer and fewer hands every year, but be very surprised if it happens.

[@northernhills863]

Arguably, the least impacted occupations will be executives, construction, and general labor/services where robotics development are impractical. In reality, human service will become more appreciated (more of a luxury purchase). The jobs that will suffer are the same sort that suffer now from 'outsourcing'. The truth about AI is that it is a tool, and we should learn how to use it -- while understanding it's limits.

Love You Both Sir Ji❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@GaidenBalki]

Well done. That's how you do an interview. Solid work.

[@oorzuis1419]

big trees catch a lot of wind we say in Holland there is a point to it they need it, and can handle it, but Gates is one of those working on it and never seems to stop working on it. it is something to admire

[@coreygrua3271]

Delightful to see how Gates has matured personally. There’s a positive place for older people. Top notch questions. And, I think the “lawyer” statement went over Mr. Gates’ head. I guess you can’t know everything.

Using an AI tutor at a local college a few years ago, I relearned all of the mathematics (and finance) which had fallen into disuse over the decades. A marvelously effective tool! Right up to where I hit the brick wall of calculus- as I had long ago! 😎

[@moonbeamchaos]

BRAVO!

10:04 When you need to sit smiling while the host is half-roasting you.
