Recent posted interview (recorded in February 2026) with trader Paul Tudor Jones, perhaps the polar opposite of Warren Buffett.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S31J5ACsOqUJones makes numerous references to Buffett during the interview and how he underestimated and even criticized him over the years. How his view on Buffett has changed, including his realization that Buffett is one the best risk managers the world has ever seen. Not sure why it took him so long to come to that conclusion.
Anyway, at 23:40 minutes Tudor Jones mentions a recent interchange he had with Warren regarding the risks of AI. Jones had apparently attended a conference (on the potential risks of AI) 18 months ago and was alarmed by what he had heard and had spoken about it on CNBS. Mr Buffett had watched the piece and immediately reached out to him saying he completely agreed with Jones concerns. Buffett told Jones the "genie was already out of the bottle, and I don't think we can get it completely back in."
Tudor Jones:"I think he (Buffett) is completely on board with the belief that we have some very real threats from AI"
Tudor Jones goes on to describe what was discussed at the AI conference he attended which included AI modelers representing each of the major LLM companies. He apparently asked the modelers how the AI safety issue would be resolved. The consensus answer was that the AI safety issue would be resolved "when 50-100 million people die". Scary stuff.
A Saturday meeting question, on the potential future risks of AI on Berkshire's business and the world in general, would be a good one to ask.
