VMware CEO reveals which tech will have the most impact on the world, and why Elon Musk is wrong on AI

CEO of VMware Pat Gelsinger on the economic impacts and ethical challenges facing the four tech superpowers of the world.

  • VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger says these four technologies will have a bigger impact on the next 20 years than any nation: cloud, mobile, IoT, and AI. He sees mobility doing the most good for humanity and AI having the biggest economic impact.
  • Gelsinger disagrees with Elon Musk's view that AI is the biggest risk we face as a civilization. Gelsinger says this is just fear-mongering and believes that technology is largely neutral. Though he does believe there is a responsibility to help shape technology for good.
  • Gelsinger grew up in rural Pennsylvania and could have just as easily become a farmer as the CEO of a multi-billion dollar technology firm.
