AI is highly likely to destroy humans, Elon Musk warns

Elon Musk believes it's highly likely that artificial intelligence (AI) will be a threat to people. The Tesla founder is concerned that a handful of major companies will end up in control of AI systems with "extreme" levels of power. In Mr Musk's opinion, there's a very small chance that humans will be safe from such systems. "Maybe there's a five to 10 percent chance of success [of making AI safe]," he told Neuralink staff after showing them a documentary on AI, reports Rolling Stone. He also told them that he invested in DeepMind in order to keep an eye on Google's development of AI.
