I don't understand why Bill Gates still feels the need to do marketing work, he is already rich he doesn't need to do commercials and blatantingly shill for a product for money like this.

Also the ides that anyone should listen to Bill Gates about needing or not needing government regulation, nationalization or trustbusting is actually insane.

The only way 'AI' can kill people is if it's connected to a killing machine, or more likely, it drives people who run killing machines. In all cases, it involves negligient, evil, or incompetent human beings.

All of this is avoidable.
