BBC World Service - Business Daily, Where next for AI?

Artificial Intelligence is at a tipping point says one industry insider

Artificial Intelligence is at a tipping point says industry pioneer Kai Fu Lee.

AI will be the defining development of the 21st century and in the next two decades it is set to transform our lives. Kai Fu Lee, a former CEO of Google China and AI pioneer tells us that the technology will revolutionise health and education and has the power to create great wealth but it also has a dark side. 
AI he says, can pose huge risks like when used in autonomous weapons. Kai Fu Lee believes that we are now at a turning point, and is urging society to wake up to the benefits and the existential threats.
