Q&A with Oracle CEO Safra Catz on generative AI's risks and impact, providing cloud infrastructure to TikTok, the importance of workplace diversity, and more
In interview, top executive highlights AI's potential and importance of diversity — Oracle CEO Safra Catz (Photo obtained by Nikkei) X: @jeff4malaysia , @nikkeiasia , and @stanphylcap X: Jeff Ooi / @jeff4malaysia : Tech will solve tech's problems. That's the mantra from Oracle CEO Safra Catz, who pitches for AI's potential and importance of diversity. But for now, 69% of its worldwide employees are men, and 58% of US employees remain white. https://asia.nikkei.com/... @nikkeiasia : Oracle's CEO says that while “some people are a little afraid” of AI's impact on the world of work, such technology will ultimately “lead to more jobs.” https://asia.nikkei.com/... @stanphylcap : So AI will lead to both “vastly improved productivity allowing the elimination of millions of white-collar positions” AND “more jobs”? Although that has sometimes been true with OTHER new technologies, I find that a bit hard to believe with THIS one.
