Artificial Intelligence: "With 75 percent probability, exactly this is what happens: The bubble bursts"

Stuart Russell, a prominent artificial intelligence researcher, has been teaching at the University of California, Berkeley, for 40 years. He co-authored the influential textbook "Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach", used by over 1500 universities. Russell has shifted from being a technology optimist to a critic, warning about the risks of AI.

He believes AI could become a threat if not developed correctly, and criticizes current regulations. Russell compares his caution to ensuring nuclear reactors don't explode, calling it common sense.
