Elon Musk and Jack Ma’s tense moment in the AI ​​debate, who are you defending?

Jakarta –

There was a historical period of tension between Elon Musk And Jack Ma in a video circulating on the Internet. They debated artificial intelligence and inspire the audience.

Actually, it’s not an emotional debate, but everyone’s opinions are interesting to listen to. This historic event in the world of AI took place during a discussion at the 2019 Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, China.

In the video uploaded by New China TV, there is footage where Ma says that machines are not smarter than people.

“Machines were created by humans. Based on science, humans will never be able to create animals that are more intelligent than humans. It is impossible to create something that is more intelligent than humans,” says the founder of Group Alibaba.

Musk immediately denied what Ma said. He admitted that he did not agree with this statement.

“I strongly agree with that,” Musk said.

“Okay, good,” Ma replied with a smile.

Then, the head of SpaceX and Tesla said that humans are very stupid and we can do something much smarter than humans. The biggest mistake that according to Musk is often made by smart people is ‘thinking they are smart’, but they are not.

Ma then asked for an example of something that humans did and were smarter than humans. Above, Musk answered the computer.

“AlphaGo beat Lee Sedol. Then, AlphaZero crushed AlphaGo 100-0,” he said.

But it seems that Ma is still firm in her opinion, that people are very intelligent. According to him, computers may be smart, but people are much smarter.

“Yes. Of course not,” Musk said.

Ma ignored Musk and continued his speech. “Smart is very academic, based on knowledge. Smart is, based on knowledge. Computers are smart but people, we created computers, I have never seen a computer make a person,” said Ma.

Then, in the case of AlphaGo, Ma believes that the platform is designed for people to play with people. He pretended that a person could not run over a car.

“Why do you play on a computer? So, I never play chess or Go on a computer,” explained Ma.
