Kai-Fu Lee promotes his new book AI Native in an operator-lens interview with investor Ann Berry. Key points:
- How CEOs can use AI where human nature keeps bad news from filtering up
- His vision of "digital immortality"
- His view that US AI spending is wasteful
- Differing East/West privacy priorities may produce diverging superintelligence paths
Berry is currently rolling out AI hands-on across a mature company, and Lee noted that operator perspective made the conversation "different." Useful for investors debating the AI bubble and executives choosing AI tools.
