Elon Musk AI Concerns
Musk said the car accident, crash, drugs, and food problems will only cause local damage to the community, but artificial intelligence may pose a threat to the whole society. For example, with artificial intelligence- driven machines, in the future robots will certainly replace the human work. He is really afraid of this possibility. Musk pointed out that in 2014 the US transportation industry provided 4.6 million jobs, and these jobs will be the future of the arrival of unmanned vehicles and will gradually disappear. The robots will deal with all the work.
