The rise of Artificial Intelligence: Will machines and robots take over your jobs? Gadgets Now

But it is probably artificial intelligence and the ability of machines to not only interact with, but manipulate human beings that raises the most suspicion. Aware of growing governmental and public distrust, the giants of tech are trying to address the issues.
