Im stephen sackur. Wherever you live, however you live, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, is going to change your life in the next few years. Will it be for the better . Well, there are Tech Visionaries with very different views some benign, others, dystopian. But on one thing, the futurists can agree what will matter most to the outcome isnt The Machines, its the humans. My guest, neil lawrence, is a professor of Machine Learning who says we face a choice. Either we use alas a tool or we will become a tool for al. So, which is more likely . Neil lawrence, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you very much for having me. Its a great pleasure to have you. Now, you are a computer scientist, but it seems to me, as youve journeyed deep into the potentiality of Artificial Intelligence, youve also thought a great deal about Human Intelligence and what is so very special and unique about us humans.
