The last time top politicians, CEOs and billionaires gathered in a Swiss mountain village to discuss society's biggest problems and pitch their solutions, the coronavirus outbreak in China was little more than a remote threat. The economy was humming, and a major armed conflict in Europe was on nobody's list of major risks.
More than two years later, the world has been upended by the Covid-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. But for the rich and powerful arriving in Davos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum, very little has changed.
"Davos is the epitome of one of the greatest challenges to society right now, which is self-congratulatory elites," said Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, a Yale management professor who speaks regularly with many well-known executives.

Travis Tanner says he first began using ChatGPT less than a year ago for support in his job as an auto mechanic and to communicate with Spanish-speaking coworkers.
