Artificial Intelligence is one of the hot topics being discussed and experienced at
Davos this year,… given its relevance to the 2016 World Economic Forum's theme "Mastering
the Fourth Industrial Revolution."
On Wednesday, Arirang TV, Korea's only global network, partnered up with the Davos forum,
hosted a session called "The State of Artificial Intelligence"… with a panel of four... that
turned into a lively debate between two experts in the field -- Professor Andrew Moore and
Professor Stuart Russel -- and two business leaders -- the president of Chinese Internet
company Baidu and the executive vice president of American telecommunications company Qualcomm.
The four discussed how smart artificial intelligence is,… offered predictions on what the next
game changers in the industry will be... and debated whether the world is ready for the
rapid technological advancements on the horizon.
"So if AI, as seems to be happening, can amplify our intelligence, can provide tools that make
us, in effect, much more intelligent than we have been, then we could be talking about
a golden age for humanity."
