Mustafa Suleyman (Microsoft AI CEO) is a grifter. He dropped out at 19 and later ran "product" for Deepmind, riding the coattails of Demis Hassabis.

He's known for:

- bullying employees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mustafa_Suleyman#cite_note-14:...

- reorgs, pointless meetings, toxic culture (example: extra office day for his org): sources who work at Microsoft

- https://x.com/pmddomingos/status/1972584701736157664

- He's a corporate climber, good at empire building, which is why Google let him go. Hires product people from his ex companies and you are left with 3 engineers and 5 product managers for a feature and don't ship anything useful.

Seems like a perfect match for a product that is a computer that lies.

I mean, if they want to put a grifter and a con artist in charge of their division and torpedo themselves, I say let them go for it!

Something, something, never interrupt your opponent whilst they’re making a mistake.
