Artificial Intelligence: "With a 75 percent probability, exactly this is going to happen: the bubble bursts"
Stuart Russell has written the most influential AI textbook. He explains why the technology could soon replace top managers as well – and when it becomes an existential threat.
Stuart Russell, a prominent artificial intelligence researcher, has been teaching at the University of California, Berkeley, for 40 years and co-authored a leading textbook, "Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach", widely used by over 1500 universities. He has become a vocal critic of the current state of AI development, warning of its potential risks.
In an interview at the DLD conference in Munich, Russell explained to Handelsblatt why he changed his stance from tech optimist to critic, and expressed concerns about the current regulatory approach. He believes that AI could become a threat if not developed correctly, and advocates for a cautious approach.
