As the article mentions, it's not limited to Silicon Valley types, but even if it were I don't know if there's really a "just" about Davos in your living room. A direct line to the thoughts of top Silicon Valley people is a pretty powerful pitch, no?

Only if you want to pipe their words directly into your brain with no opportunity to send yours back to them. I generally decline such one-way offers.
I'm not really sure how to respond to that. You don't read books or watch Youtube?
Books yes, youtube no, except the occasional funny animal/baby video with my wife. Even books need to meet an expected quality threshold before I elect to dedicate tens of hours of my attention, and I am willing to grant it because the thousands of hours or years worth of thought put into a book are often worth the brain space consumption trade-off. I try to be very selective in the content I consume, with exceptions for pure entertainment when I need it.
