I'm much more focused on the benefits to all of us. I am haunted by the fact that the industrial revolution didn't touch the parts of the world where I grew up until much later. So I am looking for the thing that may be even bigger than the industrial revolution, and really doing what the industrial revolution did for the West, for everyone in the world. So I'm not at all worried about AGI showing up, or showing up fast. Great, right? That means 8 billion people have abundance. That's a fantastic world to live in, AI Unverifiable source (2023)

AI Unverifiable The source URL (indiatoday.in) returned HTTP 403 Forbidden and could not be fetched. However, the quote is independently confirmed via multiple web search results which quote Nadella verbatim: "I am haunted by the fact that the industrial revolution didn't touch the parts of the world where I grew up until much later. So, I am looking for something that may be even bigger than the industrial revolution... 8 billion people have abundance. That's a fantastic world to live in." Vote alignment is correct (for "AGI will create abundance"). Quote traces to 2023 interview; Nadella has continued these themes through 2025-2026 with similar messaging. Marking ai_unverifiable per instructions since primary source URL blocks AI fetching. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 3d ago
