Bill Gates initially believed that the internet would make the world more rational and fact-based. However, he has come to realize that it has become a tool for disinformation and "crazy ideas." Gates acknowledged that the internet has enabled like-minded individuals with unconventional beliefs to find each other, citing groups like QAnon. Despite this, Gates remains positive about the potential of artificial intelligence to relieve labor shortages and bring prosperity to the world. He also supports the regulation of AI and thinks that opposing it is foolish.
