RANCHO PALOS VERDES, CALIFORNIA ¨C Artificial intelligence and machine learning will create computers so sophisticated and godlike that humans will need to implant ¡°neural laces¡± in their brains to keep up, Tesla Motors and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk told a crowd of tech leaders this week.
While Musk¡¯s description of an injectable human-computer link may sound like science fiction, top tech executives repeatedly said that artificial intelligence was on the verge of changing everyday life, during discussion at a conference by online publication Recode this week.
It is no secret that tech companies are diving into AI analytics research, an industry that will grow to $70 billion by 2020 from just $8.2 billion in 2013, according to a Bank of America report citing data from market researchers IDC.
