Original Title: Bill Gates and Satya Nadella Disagree with Elon Musk on the Imminent AI Threat
NetEase Technology News, September 26 – According to a report from VentureBeat, the question of who truly controls the robot has sparked a recent conversation between Microsoft founder Bill Gates and CEO Satya Nadella. In their interview, they discussed how to maintain control over AI technology and how humans can benefit from it by building smarter robots and using artificial intelligence responsibly. Both expressed the view that the AI threat is being exaggerated, and even if risks exist, they are not imminent.
In the interview, Gates specifically addressed Elon Musk’s concerns about AI. He said, “Musk is worried about the so-called AI control problem, but I don’t think it’s something we should be panicking over right now. His point is that we shouldn’t be overly alarmed, but we also shouldn’t ignore the possibility that this issue might arise in the future.â€
Nadella echoed Gates’ sentiments, emphasizing that while AI will grow significantly, it will remain under human control. He added, “The core principle guiding us is: How can we empower humans and enhance their abilities? Even in self-learning systems, many design decisions are made by people. So we can ensure there are no biases or harmful data in these systems. I believe we have the power to shape our future, not just sit back and watch. Control is a choice, and we must strive to keep it.â€
Musk once tweeted that AI poses a greater risk than nuclear weapons. While his intent may be more about setting guidelines, his message could be interpreted as a warning: “Machines will eventually take over.†However, most experts agree that AI will only do what it's programmed to do. For example, robots can handle tasks like sorting flowers or processing candy orders—they won’t break into your home or drive your car into a lake.
Robots are limited by the instructions given to them. This is a moral boundary set by humanity. The idea of machines taking over is more of a Hollywood fantasy. Still, as Gates pointed out, vigilance is important. With modern cars and home robots capable of executing complex, interconnected commands—like opening a garage door, turning on lights, adjusting the thermostat, or even starting the oven—it’s clear that AI is becoming more integrated into daily life.
Humans, on the other hand, are wired to focus on one thing at a time, which helps us avoid distractions. While robots can multitask, managing thousands of connected devices at once could become a challenge. That’s why AI guidelines are essential. But Musk isn’t entirely wrong—being cautious is wise. After all, as we continue to develop smarter systems, staying aware of potential risks is part of responsible innovation.
