Elon Musk says he's terrified of AI taking over the world and most scared of Google's DeepMind AI project

Elon Musk has been sounding the alarm about the potentially dangerous, species-ending future of artificial intelligence for years. In 2016, the billionaire said human beings could become the equivalent of "house cats" to new AI overlords. He has since repeatedly called for regulation and caution when it comes to new AI technology. But of all the various AI projects in the works, none has Musk more worried than Google's DeepMind. "Just the nature of the AI that they're building is one that crushes all humans at all games," Musk told The New York Times in an interview.
