IBM’s Gary Cohn won’t put his own data into an AI agent | Sozzi Unleashed

Asked whether he is using Meta’s Muse, IBM vice chair Gary Cohn tells Brian Sozzi: “No, not at all. Not a fan. At this point, I’m not comfortable giving up my personal data.” He is not against the technology, though, and argues AI will be a productivity boom with “no real losers.”

Cohn, who was director of the National Economic Council and before that president and chief operating officer of Goldman Sachs, also makes the case that regulators should leave the technology alone and go after what it produces: “You’re gonna regulate the outcomes. You’re gonna regulate the products.”
