Why Are We Scared of Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being considered as the next technology evolution, which would disrupt a large chunk of jobs performed by human beings. Learning machines, which are being designed, are likely to learn faster than human beings. Consequently, they could even turn out to be our foes, or pose as survival threats to human beings. Not surprising though, a host of important personalities, such as Bill Gates of Microsoft, Elon Musk of Tesla, and Stephen Hawking, the famous physicist of our times, have warned us about the serious consequences that AI would cause to the human race. The last few years have witnessed lot of work, and implementation in the automation space, particularly in Artificial Intelligence.
