Artificial Intelligence is our future. But will it save or destroy humanity?

If tech experts are to be believed, artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the world. Artificial intelligence is software built to learn or problem solve -- processes typically performed in the human brain. Neither Musk nor Hawking believe that developers should avoid the development of AI, but they agree that government regulation should ensure the tech does not go rogue. However, Shostak doesn't believe sophisticated AI will end up enslaving the human race -- instead, he predicts, humans will simply become immaterial to these hyper-intelligent machines.
