What is the Future of Artificial Intelligence?

Where will humans fit in a world where robots outsmart them? This is the focus of a heated debate between thought leaders and tech billionaires. Some believe we're steadily meandering toward an AI apocalypse, where humans are either obliterated or enslaved by robots, and we must act quickly to prevent it. Others will tell you that artificial intelligence will always be the subservient best friend of mankind, even when it outwits its creators, and we should move ahead with developing AI at full speed. And there's no arguing that we are at the doorsteps--or in the midst--of the biggest technological revolution of mankind's history, where everything is being connected to the internet, data is in abundance and AI algorithms are permeating every domain.
