AI, geo-politics and global economy are usually discussed during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. But this time former Google CEO Eric Schmidt came into limelight and that too because of his personal life. Actually, during WEF, a video of Eric Schmidt went viral, in which he was seen avoiding questions with a woman.
After this, it was revealed that she was none other than the daughter of Germany’s powerful politician Markus Söder and famous model Gloria-Sophie Burkant. Both have been seen together many times from New Year to Davos, due to which discussions about them have intensified in the tech world.
