I think his timeline is aggressive, but not going to lie, AI gives me anxiety
Did it give you enough anxiety to go out and try/buy MS Copilot? Because that was the goal here. The guy has a product to sell. Don’t forget that.

Big time full of shite! AI continues to be garbage. The only people who think it will take over in 18 months are people who don’t have to use it regularly.

So you still need an accountant?


Let me rephrase. If you are a small company and your accounting department has 3 people in it, with ChatGPT you only need 1. And instead of someone with a 4 year degree, someone with a associates can do the job.

Elon Musk suggests we will eventually need some kind a universal payment system because of this. Like welfare checks but on a much broader scale.


We already have universal basic income. We just don't call it that. We call it EBT, WIC, Unemployment, etc. We just need to abolish all those programs, roll them into one system and be done with it.

Did AI make that image for you? Dinesh hasn't been the CEO of Harman for six and a half years now.
