Elon Musk: Governments will obtain AI technology 'at gunpoint' if necessary
In his most recent tirade on the existential threat posed by artificial intelligence, billionaire tech titan Elon Musk says governments will use force to get companies to turn over their advanced AI technology.

During the course of his Twitter rant, in which Musk claims the global race for artificial intelligence will result in World War III, a follower suggests that the government lags behind and corporations will develop the most threatening arsenal of artificial intelligence.

"[Governments] don't need to follow normal laws," he says. "They will obtain AI developed by companies at gunpoint, if necessary," Musk responds.
