In a recent podcast appearance, the renowned pioneer often called the 'Godfather of AI' tackled pressing questions about artificial intelligence's future. He discussed whether AI will create new jobs or render humans obsolete, the existential risks akin to 'Iron Man's Ultron' scenario, and whether AI safety measures are sufficient. The interview also touched on timelines for superintelligence—estimated at 10 to 20 years—and which jobs, like plumbing, might remain safe from automation.
