A speaker (Mark Simpson) argues that artificial intelligence will propel society to an exponentially higher level and may have an impact even larger than the Internet revolution. The speaker recalls skepticism when the Internet began in the mid-1980s and uses that analogy to suggest AI's transformative scale is hard to imagine now.
I think artificial intelligence is just going to take us exponentially to a new level. And it's really hard to imagine where that's going to take us at this stage. I remember many years ago, but when before I was in the computer industry, I was talking to my manager. This is when the Internet just was starting in the mid-80s, and we talked about how every bit of information in every library in the world was going to be digitized. And I read an article saying that this is going to be bigger than the Industrial Revolution. And I couldn't fathom that. I couldn't. How could that be? Just a lot of books on a computer that, you know, we've all seen, seen it now. But I think AI is going to be another step, probably even bigger than that, than what we've seen with the Internet.
