How did Davos turn into a tech conference?

The World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos felt different this year, and not just because Meta and Salesforce took over the storefronts on the main boulevard. AI dominated the conversation in a way that overshadowed traditional topics like climate change and global poverty, and CEOs didn’t hold back. There was public criticism of trade policy, warnings about the bursting of AI bubbles, and a lot of talk about what comes next for the industry.
