Oxford University professor Nick Bostrom said that in the next century we may experience an apocalypse in artificial intelligence management . Google ’ s chief engineer , Ray Kurzweilde , is concerned about artificial intelligence , but for other reasons .
‘ Not everyone who works on artificial intelligence finds these concerns important . However , since society thinks so , the issue should be taken more seriously .
