The whole idea that Microsoft would invest $10B in AI with no intention of profiting from it simply because they want to improve everybody's life is so preposterous it's hard to imagine how the writer can keyboard it out without gagging.
The fallacy in here comes in this statement:
we need dependable ways to organize people to work together to build complex things within complex systems.
Doesn't this guy know anything about Chaos Theory? He never saw Jurassic Park? You CAN'T dependably do this anymore than you can predict which way a raindrop will go when it drops down on top of your hand. There are too many variables and too many interactions, and with human beings too many things which can't be quantified.
What you can say reliably is that if Microsoft is involved, they'll do everything they can to make sure AI is developed to benefit their shareholders.
