The billionaire technology leader said late Thursday that AI will have the potential to become the “most disruptive force in history.”
Speaking in conversation with U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, tech billionaire Elon Musk said that AI will has the potential to become the"most disruptive force in history."
"We will have something that is, for the first time smarter than the smartest human," Musk said at an event at Lancaster House, an official U.K. government residence."It's hard to say exactly what that moment is, but there will come a point where no job is needed," Musk continued, speaking alongside British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak."You can have a job if you wanted to have a job for personal satisfaction. But the AI would be able to do everything.
"If you wish for a magic genie, that gives you any wish you want, and there's no limit. You don't have those three wish limits nonsense, it's both good and bad. One of the challenges in the future will be how do we find meaning in life."Musk has on multiple occasions warned of the threats that AI poses to humanity, having once said it could be more dangerous than nuclear weapons.
Musk's comments Thursday follow the conclusion to a landmark summit in Bletchley Park, England, where world leaders agreed to a global communique on AI that saw them find common ground on the risks the technology poses to humanity.
