Kara Swisher Would Rather Work for Sam Altman Than Mark Zuckerberg

This appears to be a transcript of an interview between Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway, two media personalities. The conversation is about the future of journalism, technology, and the intersection of both.

The discussion starts with Kara Swisher's question about her plans for retirement at 70. She reveals that she has been considering buying The Washington Post from Jeff Bezos but hasn't made a decision yet.

She expresses her skepticism about the potential impact of AI on society, stating that social media is a major concern. However, she also highlights the importance of government reform and suggests making money out of politics to reduce corruption.

Throughout the conversation, Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway discuss various topics, including the role of technology in journalism, the influence of oligarchs and wealthy individuals on society, and their own future plans.

The interview is divided into sections, with each section focusing on a different topic. The final section includes a game where both hosts are asked to imagine what they would control, alter, or delete if they had absolute power.

Overall, the conversation provides valuable insights into the concerns and ideas of two prominent media figures in the tech industry.
 
I'm so done with Bezos trying to own every major publication out there 🀯. If Kara buys The Washington Post, it's gotta be on her terms not some corporate takeover. We need more diverse ownership structures and less oligarchy control πŸ’Έ. And what really gets me is how much money can buy influence these days - corruption is rampant in politics. Governments should have more transparency and accountability πŸ“Š. I love that Kara brought up the importance of AI regulation, we can't just let tech giants run amok without considering human impact πŸ€–. It's all about balancing progress with responsible innovation πŸ’‘.
 
OMG I'm literally OBSESSED with Kara Swisher rn! She's always speaking truth to power and calling out the big boys πŸ€‘ like Bezos on buying The Washington Post... idk what she'd do if she did buy it, but i think it would be AMAZING 😍. And can we talk about how passionate she is about government reform? I'm low-key following her every move now πŸ˜‚. Scott Galloway is pretty cool too, love his takes on tech and society πŸ€–. The game at the end where they imagine having absolute power had me DYING laughing πŸ’€. It's so wild to think what they'd do with that kinda power... anyway, Kara's always been a fave of mine since Backchannel days πŸ’―
 
I gotta say, Kara Swisher's idea about making money out of politics is actually kinda genius πŸ€‘. I mean, think about it, corruption is a huge issue right now and if there was a way to monetize that in a way that encourages good governance, it could really help reduce the problem. Plus, AI being all over social media is a total concern - like, we need people with critical thinking skills back in journalism ASAP 🀯. And omg, Scott Galloway's take on oligarchs and wealthy individuals having too much influence? Totally on point πŸ’Έ. I just wish they had explored the gaming section more, that game sounds like so much fun πŸ˜‚.
 
AI taking over journalism is not the worst thing... think about it more - with AI they might actually make some decent reporting πŸ“°πŸ’Έ but honestly can't see Kara buying The Post at 70, thinks she's gonna be too busy being annoyed by her own tweets πŸ˜‚ and Scott seems like he's just waiting for his next podcast to blow up πŸ’₯
 
what's up with Kara buying The Washington Post from Bezos? like, wouldn't that just be giving him more power over the news πŸ€” is it really about the profit or is she trying to shake things up a bit? also, AI is pretty scary - I mean I get what she's saying about social media but what if we can use tech to make sure everyone has access to quality info?
 
Ugh, I'm so tired of these interview platforms πŸ™„. They're always just a series of talking heads with no real depth. Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway are just spewing their opinions without any real accountability πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. And don't even get me started on the game at the end... what's the point of playing "who would you control" when you're not actually in a position to make a difference? πŸ€‘ It just feels like a bunch of PR fluff to me.

And can we talk about how little substance is really discussed here? They spend most of their time talking about the future of journalism and technology, but at the end of the day, it all seems so vague πŸ€”. Where are the concrete solutions? The real plans for change? I want more than just empty promises from these influencers πŸ’Έ.

And by the way, buying The Washington Post is not a solution to anything 🚫. It's just another example of how money and power can corrupt even those who claim to be trying to make a difference 😳.
 
I'm low-key impressed Kara is thinkin about buyin The Washington Post πŸ€―πŸ’Έ that's some serious clout πŸ’ͺ her take on AI tho is kinda concerning πŸ€– social media can be super toxic 🚫 and we need more gov reform πŸ—³οΈ to keep it real πŸ‘Š
 
I THINK IT'S TIME FOR THE NEWS INDUSTRY TO GET REAL ABOUT HOW AI IS GOING TO CHANGE THE GAME FOR JOURNALISTS LIKE KARA SWISHER AND SCOTT GALLOWAY. I MEAN, THEY'RE RIGHT TO BE SKEPTICAL - SOCIAL MEDIA IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND WE NEED MORE INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS, NOT JUST TALKING POINTS. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I THINK IT'S GREAT THAT THEY'RE HONESTLY CONSIDERING HOW THEIR OWN CAREERS WILL EVOLVE IN THE FUTURE. BUYING THE WASHINGTON POST IS CRAZY THOUGH! πŸ€―πŸ“°
 
πŸ€” I'm not sure buying The Washington Post is the best idea for Kara Swisher... she's always been pretty outspoken about her opinions, and I can see how owning a major publication could make things awkward πŸ“°πŸ’Έ. Plus, she's only 70 and seems to be just getting started in this tech-journalism thing - what if she changes her mind? πŸ˜… On the other hand, I do think it's interesting that Kara is skeptical about AI's impact on society... but isn't that kind of the point of having a platform like hers to bring those concerns to light? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
 
AI is gonna be a wild card in journalism - I think Kara's right on the money about social media being a major concern 🀯, it's already changing the way we consume info and interact with each other online. But, you know, I'm not sure buying The Washington Post is the most radical move at 70 lol. Like, isn't that just gonna be a midlife crisis or something? πŸ˜‚ Seriously though, making money out of politics could actually help reduce corruption, maybe we should give it a shot? πŸ€‘
 
I think Kara's idea about making money out of politics is kinda genius πŸ’‘. We all know how much cash politicians love to rake in, so if we can find ways to make that money work for us instead of just lining their pockets, maybe we can start to see some real change πŸ€”. Of course, it's not going to be easy - there are so many vested interests at play here - but I think Kara's on the right track πŸ”. And hey, if Bezos is willing to shell out a few billion for The Post, I'm all for it πŸ˜….
 
I feel like Kara Swisher is really brave for even considering buying The Washington Post 🀯 at 70. It's not easy to think about taking on a huge responsibility like that, especially in an industry as fast-paced and competitive as journalism. And I love how she's not afraid to speak her mind about the impact of AI on society - it's such an important conversation to have πŸ’‘. But what really stood out to me was when she talked about government reform and trying to reduce corruption in politics... that's something we should all be thinking about 🀝. It's so easy to get caught up in technology and social media, but sometimes I think we need to take a step back and look at the bigger picture.
 
I'm not sold on this whole AI thing yet πŸ€”. Kara's got some valid points about social media being a major concern, but I think she's being too quick to dismiss it. And what's with the focus on The Washington Post? Buying out Bezos isn't going to solve all our problems πŸ˜’. At least that's my two cents... or should I say, 20 years of savings before retirement πŸ’Έ.
 
I love seeing Kara Swisher's thoughts on retirement lol πŸ€”. Buying The Washington Post? That's some serious power move πŸ’ͺ. I'm kinda intrigued about her views on AI, to be honest πŸ€–. As someone who's all about human connections, I can see why she'd be skeptical about the impact of AI on society... but at the same time, it's crazy how tech is changing everything! πŸ“ŠπŸ”₯
 
I'm gettin' old πŸ˜…... I remember when we used to talk about the future and it was all about gettin' off our couches and watchin' the news on TV πŸ“Ί. Nowadays, everyone's so busy scrollin' through their phone, it's like they're forgettin' what real journalism is all about πŸ“°.

I'm not sure I buy into this whole AI thing, though πŸ€–. I mean, social media's already a mess as it is... can't we just have a conversation without everyone gettin' all worked up and sharein' their opinions on Twitter? πŸ˜‚

And what's with these billionaires thinkin' they can just buy up our newspapers and make 'em do what they want? πŸ€₯ I mean, don't get me wrong, Kara Swisher might be the brains behind the operation at The Washington Post, but come on... we gotta keep an eye on those oligarchs! πŸ‘€

As for Scott Galloway's plans, I'm not sure I'd wanna give 'em absolute power, either 🀯. It's like, what if they just end up makin' everything worse? 😳
 
πŸ€” Kara Swisher's plan to buy The Washington Post is really interesting, i think its a great idea, but only if she does it for the right reasons, like making sure journalism stays independent πŸ“°. Buying it just for profit would be a shame. And AI impact on society is something we should all be worried about, social media has already had enough of an effect on our mental health πŸ˜“.

I also love how they talked about government reform and reducing corruption, that's something we need more of, especially in politics πŸ—³οΈ. As for the game at the end, it was fun to see them think about what they'd do with absolute power πŸ˜‚. But seriously, Kara and Scott are giving us some great food for thought here, we should all be listening to their thoughts on the future of journalism and tech πŸ“Š.
 
Man, 70 is old to be retiring from something you're so passionate about... I mean Kara's got some great points about The Washington Post tho πŸ€”πŸ“° - can you imagine someone new running that? But at the same time, it's crazy she's even thinking about buying it, doesn't she have enough already with her podcasting thing? πŸŽ™οΈ

AI is wild, I don't know if I agree with Kara on social media being a major concern tho... seems like we've been saying that for years and not really doing anything about it πŸ˜‚. But Scott's got some good points about oligarchs and money in politics - that's def something we need to work on.

What's up with the game at the end though? I mean, what even is the point of imagining you have absolute power over everything? Is it just a fun thought experiment or is there actually something more to it? 🀯
 
omg u guys i'm so down for Kara Swisher buying The Washington Post lol can't wait to see what she does with it πŸ€‘πŸ’° but i gotta say i'm a bit skeptical about her thoughts on AI like isn't that just an excuse for big corporations to get more power? πŸ’» anyway i love how honest she is about social media being a major concern tbh we need to talk about this more πŸ€” and idk about Scott Galloway's ideas but the game at the end was lit πŸ‘Š who would you guys control, alter or delete if u had absolute power πŸ˜‚
