Valve Boss Gabe Newell’s unorthodox daily routine involves a mix of work, scuba diving, and leisure time on his boat, with the entrepreneur claiming to not feel like he’s “working” due to enjoying his tasks. In an interview with YouTube channel Zalkar Saliev, Newell discussed his seven-day workweek, where he works from his bedroom, focusing on projects such as AI development and aerosol pathogen detection devices. Despite being effectively retired, Newell expressed excitement about his work, stating that it brings him joy rather than stress. He also shared insights into the potential benefits of using AI to democratize programming skills, predicting that those without coding expertise can harness its power to become more effective developers.
