Artificial Intelligence (AI), is a discipline which dates back to 1956. During a workshop held at Dartmouth College campus (USA), the MIT cognitive scientist, Marvin Minsky, said, "Within a generation... the problem of creating "artificial intelligence" will substantially be solved."

AI is a term that’s now, to some extent, in everyone’s thoughts and on everyone’s lips. Some see its evolution as a benefit – perhaps in terms of analyzing enormous amounts of data to help medical science develop cures for cancer. Others see AI as a threat – to their jobs, their lifestyle, their communities and way of life.

Mentioned below are some thoughts from acclaimed tech giants about AI and how it's shaping our future AI application development.

1. “Artificial intelligence would be the ultimate version of Google. The ultimate search engine that would understand everything on the web. It would understand exactly what you wanted, and it would give you the right thing. We're nowhere near doing that now. However, we can get incrementally closer to that, and that is basically what we work on.” —Larry Page (Click to Tweet)

3. “Whenever I hear people saying AI is going to hurt people in the future I think, yeah, technology can generally always be used for good and bad and you need to be careful about how you build it … if you’re arguing against AI then you’re arguing against safer cars that aren’t going to have accidents, and you’re arguing against being able to better diagnose people when they’re sick.” —Mark Zukerberg (Click to Tweet)

4. “The key to artificial intelligence has always been the representation.” —Jeff Hawkins (Click to Tweet)

5. "Some people call this artificial intelligence, but the reality is this technology will enhance us. So instead of artificial intelligence, I think we'll augment our intelligence."  —Ginni Rometty (Click to Tweet)

6. "Anything that could give rise to smarter-than-human intelligence - in the form of Artificial Intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, or neuroscience-based human intelligence enhancement - wins hands down beyond contest as doing the most to change the world. Nothing else is even in the same league." —Eliezer Yudkowsky (Click to Tweet)

10. “Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.” —Alan Kay (Click to Tweet)
