Professor Stephen Hawking Warned Us About Rise of Artificial Intelligence

It's sad that one of the greatest minds of our time, Professor Stephen Hawking is no more. Nonetheless being one of the most brilliant figures to ever step on planet earth, the world-renowned theoretical physicist and cosmologist had very strong views and concerns about the rise of artificial intelligence. Taking into account Hawking's life history and accomplishments, that is, his discoveries about the four laws of black hole mechanics, the amazing theories about wormholes and time travel, his out of the world wisdom about top-down cosmology, and his books which sold out in millions; we can't afford to ignore his advice on AI. Also known as a fact-based technology dreamer, prof. Hawking voiced his fears that someday in future, a powerful artificial intelligence technology capable of evolving and improving itself could be developed by humans, after which it could turn against the human race.
