Mustafa Suleyman, Microsoft’s AI CEO, has publicly defended the company’s AI advancements amid growing user criticism. In a viral post on social media, Suleyman expressed disbelief at people dismissing AI as underwhelming. His condemnation comes days after users slammed the tech giant for embedding AI features like Copilot into Windows, claiming that the features were rolled out without addressing fundamental system issues or providing opt-out options.“Jeez there are so many cynics! It cracks me up when I hear people call AI underwhelming,” he wrote.The Microsoft executive contrasted today’s AI capabilities such as real-time conversations and on-demand media generation with the mobile games of the 1990s to highlight today’s technological leap.“I grew up playing Snake on a Nokia phone! The fact that people are unimpressed that we can have a fluent conversation with a super smart AI that can generate any image/video is mindblowing to me,” he added.
