Nicolai interviewing the world's most powerful CEO for his 6k subscribers!! Very happy to have found this hidden gem of a channel.

Satya Nadella is a beast. the vision, the focus. he has thought about every step to get us to AGI. ridiculous amount of respect.

His ability to bring the entire company behind his vision is phenomenal

To see someone as humble as Satya reach the top of such a mega-corporate (internal politicking and all that) is such an inspiration!

The best CEO of this generation.

Why do an MBA in 2024..? Just listen to Nicolai Tangen interviews with the top CEOs of the world - so much to learn and take on board directly from those who made it to the top!

This podcast is getting great. Y'all should interview all the 1% CEO of the company's you own

Right sir

Is that a MacBook behind Satya ?!?!?

cool

Vet noen hvordan han får han kontakt med disse folka, for å ikke nevne intervjuer? Er det pga nettverket hans, oljefondets størrelse og investeringer, eller en kombinasjon?

Love how there’s a Mac just sitting on the desk I think bill would rip this man apart in 95

Satya casually dropping the Dota 2 contest!! LOL

The interviewer is classic finance guy - has no clue of tech. And Satya geeked him out 😂

Boss interviewing all their money making bosses being invested in 😂😂

Great questions! Greater answers! LIKE Thank you! Side note: Dining hall line inspection thoughts: Why is the host's shirt un-ironed? Why is Satya in a sweater when he’s at home? Haha Sorry MA

Очень большая стату́я, / у Гейтса на фото , ка меннуя

SN needs to invest in a better microphone

It’s like listening to Bill Gates, same way of speaking. They must spent a million hours together

I want you to return the ten gigabytes to my device again and not hide it in an empty system file, and allow me - with your generosity - the freedom to format my device at a time I like. So I can repair what was damaged by your bad updates. . I would like to return the options and feature of expanding the RAM to me In the way I want , which you took possession of several years ago. Do not take the opportunity to easily access any customer's device, and the ability to make changes to the customer's devices, as a (privilege), but rather as a trust. Also, I forgot to say leave my device's battery alone.

Yet windows kills every computer it sits on. I cannot start windows update without it sucking all the processing power from my old laptop. Then restarts upon restarts. Negative productivity(!) Meanwhile I can run linux on the same computer, watch this video while updating the system, with almost no system resources used and no restart. It is magical how badly windows is written. All the kings engineers and all the kings marketers could not speed up the computer ever again. Linux that arts in heaven, give us the agility and capability and refrain us from sin to ever install windows again. I honestly wonder why are corporate entities still buying licenses from this company? It is worse than Sony's creators app where you must have both bluetooth and wifi enabled, wasting battery on your camera to use your cell phone as a remote trigger. A simple function wrapped up in an overcomplicated data harvesting scheme.

Satya Nadella should stop suppressing his accent.

Stop sneaking Ads and apps in the system first. 😂😂😂

Why anyone is afraid to ask Nadella and Cook tough questions, like Copilot gone wild, and Apple car 10 year saga, while complaining about every thing that Musk said or did. As great as Nadella and Cook are, neither is Musk, not even close. And TSLA WILL BE BIGGER THAN BOTH MSFT OR AAPL WITIN 5 TO 7 YEARS.

So Satya just admitted Google is the best AI company in the world!!!

This guy is the best CEO in the world.
