Nadella: Journalists Should Welcome AI Content to Disrupt Google and Meta's Power

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said journalists should welcome AI-generated content as it could disrupt the concentration of power held by Google and Meta.

Nadella's comments come after the New York Times sued Microsoft-backed OpenAI over its use of the newspaper's content to train AI models.

Nadella suggested the threat of misinformation leading up to the 2024 elections relates more to controlling social media platforms than generative AI that could produce fake content.

He said publishers "should welcome" generative AI as it poses a disruption to the aggregation of power in search and news feeds by companies like Google and Meta.

The Microsoft CEO took swipes at Big Tech rivals Google and Meta, stating that concentrated control of information ecosystems leads to their deterioration.
