He is wrong.

Everything is tech now. And other things are the value add.

For example, if you are a law firm, or a real estate company, and if your tech is not operating then your company is not operating.

If your Internet is offline, or your local network, then your business is not running.

If your company has a security breach, then you will have massive reputation problems.

If you're a small business, you need to have an online presence with Insta, Facebook, and Google maps.

It's all 75% tech now. Get with the programme.

Big Tech is term for big tech companies. Meta, Alphabet, MS, Apple and few more, the companies that have monopolized large sections of the Internet/Mobile and tech in general and are using that power + money to expand further into related/unrelated areas.

right, not tech itself, but the big tech companies that have platforms and are gatekeepers.

He’s not arguing for less tech, just that big tech shouldn’t monopolize AI. Are you saying they should?

[hammock]

Isn’t that kind of making the point?

Big tech is too big to fail

"Too big to fail, but not too big to bail out" was what was learned after 2008. Why wouldn't tech want to get in on that graft?
