I don't understand why Bill Gates still feels the need to do marketing work, he is already rich he doesn't need to do commercials and blatantingly shill for a product for money like this.

Also the ides that anyone should listen to Bill Gates about needing or not needing government regulation, nationalization or trustbusting is actually insane.

They quoted him wrong. He said "... will cause billionaires death...". Why else is he and the other billionaires suddenly shit scared of LLM's?
