FORTUNE - At Fortune's Brainstorm Tech conference, Grindr CEO George Arison emphasized his lifelong drive to achieve the impossible. Arison, a veteran tech founder and former Google employee, joined Grindr after its 2022 IPO and is one of the few openly LGBTQ+ CEOs. He highlighted the essential qualities of arrogance and craziness for founders, echoing entrepreneur Steve Blank's view that founders are often seen as hallucinating visionaries driven to realize their ideas. Arison believes AI will drastically change the workforce, reducing the number of employees needed to build a successful company. Due to AI's capabilities, he envisions companies achieving significant revenue with fewer employees. However, he stressed that human employees will remain crucial, with each team member's contributions becoming more vital alongside synthetic workers.
