There was a Cisco AI Summit event yesterday. It was a corporate-captured attempt at a TED conference. They did, to their credit, attract the top names in AI, including Sam Altman (of OpenAI) and Jensen Huang (of Nvidia). The whole point, if there was one beyond real-time hagiography, was to get the tech celebs to say interesting-sounding things. Not one complex or difficult question was posed.
Wouldn’t it have been great, though, to use the opportunity of having Altman and Huang in the same venue, to ask them both about that $100 billion deal?
