When you have that much money, it’s actually hard to find someone who will tell you something you don’t want to hear that is actually true and isn’t doing it just to ragebait you or the like.
And I don’t think he’s been trying all that hard either.

The most valuable use case for AI might just be to roast billionaires surrounded by sycophants
Instead they built better sycophants
Why would billionaires pay to be roasted when they could pay to be sucked off instead?
And let’s be honest, you know what you’d do too if it was you.
Good point. The same thing happens to heads of state. Putin thought he could take Ukraine in a few weeks because he is surrounded by yes men.
If Putin was that stupid, he'd already have been ousted.
The beauty of being rich/powerful enough is that when the yes man turns out to be wrong, you can throw them into the meat grinder too.
Do it enough times, and you end up with yes men that also force other people into the meat grinder well enough you don’t have to care, directly.
It’s a type of genius. It works best when you embrace that everyone wants to suck up to you anyway, and there are always more flunkies where they came from, so you’re really helping the world out by filtering down to the somewhat effective ones ASAP.
