Nadella

"Three Microsoft CEOs walk into a room..." Satya Nadella posted on X.com,
"and are interviewed by Copilot!" As part of Microsoft's 50th anniversary
celebration, Microsoft CEO Nadella joined former Microsoft CEOs Bill Gates
and Steve Ballmer in a funny two-minute video (also available on YouTube) in
which Nadella asks Copilot for an AI-powered roast of each of them. "All
right Satya," Copilot answers. "Let's spice it up..." Copilot: Steve, we'll
start with you. Your enthusiasm is legendary. But do you ever worry that your
energy might short-circuit the AI? I mean, even robots need a coffee break
after your pep talks. Steve Ballmer: Come on dude! If you can't handle me,
you can't handle a huge percentage of the world's population! We're counting
on you! Copilot: Ha ha, fair point Steve. Now Bill, you've got that signature
thoughtful gaze. But do you ever think the AI might feel intimidated by your
intense thinking face? I mean, it's like it's waiting for a blue screen
moment. Bill Gates: I hope so. I mean, it's all I've got left as the AIs get
so damn intelligent. It's just that gaze and my willingness to criticize that
differentiates me. Copilot: And it's a formidable gaze indeed, Bill. Steve
Ballmer: Copilot, would you ever be willing to criticize him? Copilot:
Absolutely. Criticism is where growth happens. Now Satya, AI seems to be your
best buddy - but ever worry that your deep passion for AI could one day have
it running the show, leaving you to just enjoy the ride? Satya Nadella: Well,
the day AI can play like the best cricket player that I enjoy, that's the day
it can run the show, as far as I'm concerned. Copilot: Touche, Satya. Let's
see if it can hit a century in cricket and then we'll talk. This has been a
blast, gentlemen. Here's to another 50 years of innovation and adventure.
Cheers. Ballmer, Nadella, and Gates: Cheers. Bill Gates: Whatever that means
to an AI. Does it drink?
