Welcome to Big Technology Podcast, a show for cool-headed, nuanced conversation of the tech world and beyond.

Bob Muglia is our guest today.

He's the former CEO of Snowflake, a $50 billion plus technology company.

And he was also the head of server and tools at Microsoft,

which is the division that produced Azure Microsoft's cloud services offering.

And it's also the division that its current CEO, Sae Inundela, came out of.

Muglia has a new book out called The Datapreneurs, The Promise of AI and the Creators Building

Our Future, and he's here to talk about it. But first, we're going to dive into Mark

Andreessen's new essay, Why AI Will Save the World, and dive into its arguments and merits.

In the second half, Mugley and I will have a discussion I've been looking forward to having

for a long time.

We're going to speak about the formation of Azure and the conflicts inside Microsoft before it emerged.

going to hear it from Muglia who is right there.

So here we go.

My conversation with Bob Muglia is coming up right after this.
