Bill Gates has previously said President Donald Trump tried to hire him as the White House science adviser. A new clip of Gates talking about his first two meetings with Trump, obtained by MSNBC, may show why the tech innovator turned down the role.

Among other anecdotes, Gates is seen telling an audience about how, in both of his meetings with Trump, the president asked if there’s a difference between HIV and HPV. The crowd was of Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation employees, according to MSNBC.

”He wanted to know if there was a difference between HPV and HIV,” Gates is seen saying, ”so I was able to explain that those are rarely confused with each other.”

Did Google fake its Google Duplex AI demo?

blankGoogle during its keynote speech at the annual I/O developer conference last week stunned onlookers with a demonstration of its Google Assistant calling local businesses and conducting natural conversation to carry out “real world” tasks on behalf of users. It’s called Google Duplex and if you missed the demos, they’re certainly worth checking out.

Google CEO Sundar Pochai insisted that the pre-recorded calls real calls. “What you’re going to hear is the Google Assistant actually calling a real salon to schedule an appointment for you,” Pochai said of one of the calls.

But was Google being entirely truthful about the presentation? Axios has some questions.
