I happened to catch several of the stories on 60 Minutes Sunday evening. All were very good, but one was very thought-provoking for me. It was the interview with the top AI (artificial intelligence) man in China, Kai-Fu Lee.
Kai-Fu Lee said: I believe it's (artificial intelligence) going to change the world more than anything in the history of mankind. More than electricity.
Scott Pelley opened the segment with these remarks:
"Despite what you hear about artificial intelligence, machines still can't think like a human, but in the last few years they have become capable of learning. And suddenly, our devices have opened their eyes and ears and cars have taken the wheel. Today, artificial intelligence is not as good as you hope and not as bad as you fear, but humanity is accelerating into a future that few can predict. That's why so many people are desperate to meet Kai-Fu Lee, the oracle of AI."
The interview segments and transcript can be found at this link. I found it fascinating!
Happy Tech Tuesday. Try to stay cool!
