Jeff Hinton dubbed the “Godfather of Artificial Intelligence,” warned of the dangers of the exciting technology, noting, “There is a serious risk that things will become smarter than us fairly soon, as these things may get bad motives and take over.”
"Politicians and industry leaders need to think about what needs to be done, regarding this issue right now. It's no longer science fiction, technological progress is a serious problem that is likely to emerge very soon," he said.
He believes that "the world may not be far from artificial general intelligence, which has the ability to understand or learn any intellectual task that a person can perform."
