“A.I. is more important than fire or electricity.”

–Google CEO, Sundar Pichai

“The pace of progress in artificial intelligence . . . is incredibly fast. Unless you have direct exposure to groups like Deepmind, you have no idea how fast—it is growing at a pace close to exponential.” —Elon Musk “One of our big goals in search is to make search that really understands exactly what you want, understands everything in the world. As computer scientists, we call that artificial

• intelligence. . . . I don’t think it’s as far off as

people think.” --Larry Page, Google Co-Founder “Artificial Intelligence, deep learning, machine learning — whatever you’re doing if you don’t understand it — learn it. Because

within 3 years.” –Mark Cuban “A year spent in artificial intelligence is enough to make

“Anything that could give rise to smarter-than-human intelligence – in the form of Artificial Intelligence, brain- computer interfaces, or neuroscience-based human intelligence enhancement – wins hands down beyond contest as doing the most to change the world. Nothing else is even in the same league.” –Eliezer Yudkowsky “Nobody phrases it this way, but I think that artificial intelligence is almost a humanities discipline. It’s really an attempt to understand human intelligence and human cognition.” —Sebastian Thrun “Artificial intelligence will reach human levels by around 2029. Follow that

we will have multiplied the intelligence, the human biological machine intelligence of

fold.” –Ray Kurzweil “Some people call this artificial intelligence, but the reality is this technology will enhance us. So instead of artificial intelligence, I think we’ll augment our intelligence.” –Ginni Rometty “I am telling you, the world’s first trillionaires are going to come from somebody who masters AI and all its derivatives, and applies it in ways we never thought of.”—Mark Cuban

“Google will fulfill its mission only when its search engine is AI-complete. You guys know what that means? That’s artificial intelligence.” –Larry Page, Google Founder “Artificial intelligence will digitally disrupt all

• industries. Don’t be left

behind.” –Dave Waters “The field of Artificial Intelligence is set to conquer most of the human disciplines; from art and literature to commerce and sociology; from computational biology and decision analysis to games and puzzles.” –Anand Krish “Machine intelligence is the last invention that humanity will ever need to make.” –Nick Bostrom “The relationship between human intelligence and artificial intelligence (HI + AI) will necessarily be one of symbiosis. The challenge and potential of exploring this co-evolutionary future is the biggest story of the next century and one in which a closeness in development velocity is a necessity.” – Bryan Johnson “If we do it right, we might actually be able to evolve a form of work that taps into our uniquely human capabilities and restores our

• humanity. The ultimate paradox is

that this technology may become the powerful catalyst that we need to reclaim our humanity.” – John Hagel
