AI for the Masses:
"All of the big tech companies are now open sourcing their AI (deep
learning) software. They are also open sourcing the hardware designs of
the machines needed to train the software.
That's a big deal. This new approach to AI is proving so powerful and
useful, its use is growing exponentially"
"At this rate of adoption and with the barriers to participation dropping
daily, I'm confident this technological revolution will upend the world in
less than a decade. Most of the innovation we will see will occur at the
grassroots level."

Musk's Plan to Save the World From Advanced AI:
Develop Advanced AI:
"Noted killer robot-fearer Elon Musk has a plan to save humanity from
the looming robopocalypse: developing advanced artificial intelligence
systems. You know, the exact technologies that could lead to the
robopocalypse.
Let’s unpack that one a little bit.
Yesterday, Tesla’s boss, along with a band of prominent tech
executives including Linked in co-founder Reid Hoffman and PayPal
co-founder Peter Thiel, announced the creation of OpenAI, a nonprofit
devoted to “[advancing] digital intelligence in the way that is most
likely to benefit humanity as a whole, unconstrained by a need to
generate financial return.”"
