China's tech moguls warn of AI's troubling trajectory

China has seen incredible economic and social changes over the past few decades. But could the impact of artificial intelligence take the country by surprise? I recently spent a few weeks in the country, talking to researchers and entrepreneurs developing cutting-edge AI technologies and products. What stuck with me--beyond the growing ambition of China's researchers and the overall vibrancy of its tech scene--is how much people are starting to talk about the potential for AI to eliminate jobs across the country. Just a few years ago this seemed like much less of a concern.
