  • Its ironic that we're now watching this on Letterman's YouTube channel.

    Incredible how we lived on a completely different planet 26 years ago. First half of my life was in another world compared with the second half.
  • Dave and Bill should resume this chat and reflect what they chat in 1995.
  • It’s crazy how this was only 28 years ago. Back then you’d experience the internet to take a few mins off of our REAL lives. Today we take a few mins off the internet, to LIVE our real lives.

    Dave: “So you can listen to a baseball game on your computer. Does radio ring a bell?” Bill: “Well Dave, in 27 years you’ll publish this video clip on YouTube.”
  • "Computer at every desk & every home!" Mission accomplished!!!
  • I love when Dave asks where do you think this will go. And Bills final thought is "eventually we wanna make computers think". He was spot on with AI now here.
  • such a classic interview I hope this never gets lost in time
  • @Pete856
    Amazing how much changed within 10 years of this being recorded. From questioning why the internet is better than a radio, to Youtube launching less than 10 years later.
  • “You could find other people who have the same unusual interests as you do” is the perfect description
  • 7:12 "Eventually we may figure out how to make the computer think but that turns out to be a very tough problem. In fact there's been almost no progress." It's even more fascinating to listen to this in the age of public AI generators.
  • Dave, let me explain. You will no longer have to go to those shady bookstores or go behind the black curtain at the video rental store.

    This guy just showed the difference between those with vision and those who will be always stuck in the past.
  • Around that time, I sent a request to Gates at Microsoft for an autographed photo (one of my collections) and a while later received a note from a secretary saying that Mr Gates schedule was busy but to be patient. A couple of months passed but I received an autographed 6x4 colour photo from the richest person on the planet.

    04:00 When David first time heard about Youtube he was "Cinemas and VCR's .. ever heard of them?"

    I've seen this interview when this was aired in the 90s. I will never forget this short, funny yet very insightful clip. I was looking for this for the longest time and wanted to show this to my mother as to what MS means to the computer and the beginning of the internet.
