Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak: Artificial intelligence revolution is near

The tech icon was helping launch the Advance Queensland Innovation and Investment Summit on Thursday, where the government hoped to foster the seeds of the next Apple, Google or major AI player. "A machine doesn't yet say'what's an obstacle of the world, what's a problem of the world that needs solving and what is an approach I could take to solve it?' " he told the audience. "We're just at the verge of where the machines may take off and go much further than even we humans could make them go. "It is a new revolution in my mind, the revolution of artificial intelligence, machines that will learn, that will be able to do things much better than we know how to tell them."
