Bill Gates: I do not agree with Elon Musk about A.I. 'We shouldn't panic about it'

Elon Musk is increasingly out on his own with his doomsday predictions of a future where artificial intelligence threatens human existence. "This is a case where Elon and I disagree," says Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, speaking with the Wall Street Journal and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. "The so-called control problem that Elon is worried about isn't something that people should feel is imminent," says Gates, according to a transcript of the interview published by the Journal Monday. Over the past few months, Tesla and SpaceX boss Musk has issued repeated, dire threats warning of a very scary future with artificial intelligence. Musk says the global race for artificial intelligence will cause World War III and that governments will take AI technology "at gunpoint" if necessary.
