| 0:06.2 | that are twice, ten times, a hundred times more generally intelligent and capable than |
| 0:10.2 | the Neumanns Army, once we get there, of course there's a level of which we can't know |
| 0:15.1 | exactly exactly what's going to happen. |
| 0:18.2 | Ben, Elon Musk said AI was more dangerous than nukes, but Bill Gates says that AI is the |
| 0:29.0 | most important tech advancement in decades. |
| 0:33.6 | Where do you sit between Elon Musk and Bill Gates? |
| 0:36.6 | I think both of those statements are true and I think the first one that needs to be taken |

| 1:21.4 | that's much smarter than people because once you have a thinking machine that can really |
| 1:26.0 | think like people that thinking machine can program, it can study computer science, |
| 1:31.9 | it can study hardware engineering, it can improve itself and you'll get an exponential |
| 1:36.4 | increase in the intelligence of that thinking machine and its successors, which will |
| 1:42.6 | be AI created. |
| 1:45.7 | No doubt that's the biggest technology in human history, I mean, it may be the biggest |
