IBM Researcher: Fears Over Artificial Intelligence Are 'Overblown'

The debate over artificial intelligence has divided some of Silicon Valley's brightest minds. Companies like Google, Microsoft and Amazon are embracing AI, integrating it into their core products. Larry Page, CEO of Google parent company Alphabet, argued in 2014 that AI could bring economic benefits. "When we have computers that can do more and more jobs, it's going to change how we think about work," Page told The Financial Times. Other major industry figures warn that artificial intelligence could spin out of control.
