In this episode of Opposing Views, Mikhaila has o author and tech/media entrepreneur Andrew Keen and Professor Jürgen Schmidhuber to discuss the threat of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Andrew Keen is the author of “How to Fix the Future” and several other books. He directed and wrote “How to Fix Democracy” (2020) and is the host of the popular podcast “Keen On Capitalism.”

Jürgen Schmidhuber’s goal since 1987 has been to build a self-improving AI – an AI “smart” enough to upgrade itself, which would cause the singularity (the point when technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible). Professor Schmidhuber’s deep learning neural networks are used on billions of devices, billions of times a day.

After making their cases on AI, our guests dig deeper into the questions we are all wondering about: Will AI spare us? Can AI surpass the human brain? Would it have enough computing power?
