Elon Musk, who holds multiple Executive positions with Tesla and SpaceX, and is perhaps the foremost authority on Mars and other space exploration and "smart-cars", expressed on CNBC last night that advances in artificial intelligence (AI) could be "dangerous" to humans in the future. Sound like any SyFy show you know? His vast investment in Vicarious FCP Inc., an artificial intelligence company based in San Francisco, also places him in the forefront of a technology which he said closely parallels "Terminator" scenarios. Vicarious models devices after the human brain (cue the BSG music here, roll the credits, and hire Elon for the next movie).
