Stephen Hawking says artificial intelligence could be humanity's greatest disaster

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2016/10/19/stephen-hawking-says-artificial-intelligence-could-be-humanitys/

Stephen Hawking has suggested that artificial intelligence would be the end of civilisation,

  • “It will bring great disruption to our economy, and in the future AI could develop a will of its own that is in conflict with ours,” he said.
  • Professor Hawking, a prominent critic of making unchecked advances in AI, said that the technology promised to bring great benefits, such as eradicating disease and poverty, but “will also bring dangers, like powerful autonomous weapons or new ways for the few to oppress the many”.
I believe that Stephen Hawking is overrating a bit as i think that we should have artificial intelligence but they should be restricted to a specific amount and the roles that they have in society because it can cause people to lose their jobs.
