Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" (www.windowscentral.com)

Microsoft's AI CEO, Mustafa Suleyman, has shared his opinion after recent pushback from users online that are becoming frustrated with Copilot and AI on Windows. In a post on X, Suleyman says he's mind blown by the fact that people are unimpressed with the ability to talk fluently with an AI computer.

His post comes after Windows president Pavan Davuluri was recently met with major backlash from users online for posting about Windows evolving into an agentic OS. His post was so negatively received that he was forced to turn off replies, though Davuluri did later respond to reassure customers that the company was aware of the feedback.

How to be a tech shithead:

  1. Be disproportionately rich
  2. Surround yourself with yes-men
  3. Disregard any valid criticism as "haters"
  4. Become completely out-of-touch
  5. Get your mind blown by most basic, obvious things.

Somehow, this guy is the CEO.

Don’t forget the most important prerequisite: be a psychopath. Something something 12-15% of the world’s top CEOs are clinically psychopaths, so this is the world we get.

That's how meritocracies actually work.

Being responsive and responsible is the merit accumulation stage.

Once you accumulate enough merit, you enter the reward stage.

And what's the reward?

The reward is that you no longer need to be responsive or responsible.

What you achieve is relative to where you born and who your family know and have. And in a very small proportion your skill and competence.

  1. Be & keep getting even more increasingly disproportionately rich.
