Jeff Bezos Focusing On AI at Amazon, Sundar Pichai Talks Woke Culture

Written By Neil Cybart

Today's Above Avalon Daily email contains the following story:

  • Jeff Bezos Focusing On AI at Amazon

  • Sundar Pichai Talks Woke Culture

Hello everyone.

We will wrap up the week with something a little bit different. Over the past nine and half years of daily updates, we have only talked about an interview that took place at the NYT Dealbook Summit in NYC once – in 2021 when Tim Cook (virtually) spoke. This year, Jeff Bezos and Sundar Pichai sat for interviews with Andrew Ross Sorkin. We will talk about both interviews in greater detail.

When it comes to this conference, personalities (Andrew Ross Sorkin) trump the organization (The New York Times) hosting the event. This plays a big role in explaining why companies that don’t receive fair treatment in news coverage by the NYT still participate in a conference put on by the NYT. My stance would be that Big Tech companies should give both the NYT and their conferences the cold shoulder but that’s me.

Let’s jump in.
