As you might keep in mind, Mustafa Suleyman grew to become the CEO of AI at Microsoft after which shortly after we heard that Mikhail Parakhin stepped down as the pinnacle of Bing Search and Microsoft Promoting. Since then, Mikhail Parakhin has been very quiet on X, however he did submit one response this week on Mustafa Suleyman.
Steve Jurvetson posted a abstract of Mustafa Suleyman’s speak at a TED occasion on X that’s getting loads of consideration (and the picture above it from him), he wrote:
The brand new CEO of Microsoft AI, Mustafa Suleyman, with a $100B finances at TED:
“AI is a brand new digital species.”
“To keep away from existential danger, we should always keep away from:
1) Autonomy
2) Recursive self-improvement
3) Self-replicationWe now have an excellent 5 to 10 years earlier than we’ll need to confront this.”
In response to that, one particular person on X looped in Mikhail Parakhin saying “we want you, not going to lie.” Through which Mikhail replied, “Laborious to disagree :-).”

As I mentioned earlier than, We have quoted Mikhail Parakhin right here numerous occasions over the previous couple of years, to listen to that he’s leaving the position makes me tremendous unhappy. His transparency and willingness to hearken to the group was wonderful. I miss masking what Microsoft was working up behind the scenes round Bing and Copilot primarily based on his early previews in his posts on X.
I’m informed from inner sources that Mikhail Parakhin continues to be working at Microsoft. And Mikhail confirmed so on X including, “Yep, within the planning part, will share extra once I can.”
Thanks! Yep, within the planning part, will share extra once I can 🙂
