Bill Gates, Former CEO of Microsoft

American writer, philanthropist, investor, and businessman William Henry Gates III is most renowned for having co-founded Microsoft, the world’s largest software company. In his tenure at Microsoft, Gates served as chairman, CEO, president, and chief software architect. Until May 2014, he was also the company’s largest individual shareholder. He played a significant role in the 1970s and 1980s microcomputer revolution as an entrepreneur.

“The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the microprocessor, the personal computer, the Internet, and the mobile phone.”

Nowadays, we usually utilize computer and smartphone applications to do a single activity, like checking our bank account or scheduling a trip. But in five years, Gates believes AI will eliminate the need to use separate applications.

In the future, according to Gates, there will be AI agents—a kind of software that can understand and react to natural language as well as do a variety of other jobs. Your AI agent would be able to assist you with tasks by simply asking it to perform them, using the data you have provided about your interests, hobbies, career, and personal life.

Gates gives the example of organizing a trip. Normally, this would include making independent reservations for your lodging, airfare, dining, and other activities. However, an AI agent may make reservations and purchases on your behalf by using its understanding of your preferences.
