Bill Gates says AI-powered ChatGPT as important as 'PC, internet, mobile phones'

Bill Gates likened the development of artificial intelligence-powered ChatGPT to the advent of the personal computer and said that the new technology will be like having a "white-collar worker" as a personal assistant. "The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the microprocessor, the personal computer, the Internet, and the mobile phone," Gates wrote in a blog post. "It will change the way people work, learn, travel, get health care, and communicate with each other." Gates added: "Entire industries will reorient around it. "Businesses will distinguish themselves by how well they use it."
