Elon Musk says he's terrified of AI taking over the world and most scared of Google's DeepMind AI project
Elon Musk has been sounding the alarm about the potentially dangerous, species-ending future of artificial intelligence for years.
In 2016, the billionaire said human beings could become the equivalent of "house cats" to new AI overlords. He has since repeatedly called for regulation and caution when it comes to new AI technology.
But of all the various AI projects in the works, none has Musk more worried than Google's DeepMind.
"Just the nature of the AI that they're building is one that crushes all humans at all games," Musk told The New York Times in an interview. "I mean, it's basically the plotline in 'WarGames.'"

How Google Maps uses DeepMind’s AI tools to predict your arrival time
A lot of data and a lot of neural networks
Google Maps is one of the company’s most widely-used products, and its ability to predict upcoming traffic jams makes it indispensable for many drivers. Each day, says Google, more than 1 billion kilometers of road are driven with the app’s help. But, as the search giant explains in a blog post today, its features have got more accurate thanks to machine learning tools from DeepMind, the London-based AI lab owned by Google’s parent company Alphabet.

The new company, called Isomorphic Laboratories, will be based in the U.K. and be led "in its initial phase" by Demis Hassabis, DeepMind's co-founder and chief executive, according to a blog post Hassabis authored. He said he would continue to serve as DeepMind's CEO as well.
The company will build on an A.I. technology pioneered by DeepMind, called AlphaFold, that can predict the structure of proteins.

'The Game is Over!' Google's DeepMind says it is close to achieving 'human-level' artificial intelligence – but it still needs…
Nando de Freitas, a scientist at London-based firm DeepMind, has said 'the game is over' in regards to solving the hardest challenges in the race to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI).
