Can we be the reason of our own damnation?

The recent ongoing debate was sparked in the wake of Artificial intelligence gaining momentum in various sectors such as healthcare, transport, retail and beyond.

It is touted as that invention capable of posing an existential threat to humanity if allowed to propagate at an uncontrolled and unchecked pace.

Some tech giants are insisting we should place hurdles in its widespread proliferation before its too late. They believe the tech world is at odds because of this genuine fear that nations would compete to excel at AI and we might bear the far worse effects similar to that of the post nuclear obsession.

To put things into perspective let’s hear what the top minds say about Artificial Intelligence becoming our currency. Checkout the compilation of quotes on Artificial Intelligence.
