At the event called The human and machines partnership and the next arms race for global industry leadership, Mootee said, compared to other technologies, AI has long-term implications and immediate benefits.
“The impact is real, but we don’t need to be scared. I think it will add a lot of value in terms of economic development if we do it right,” he said. “I think it can actually help to create a better lifestyle so that we can work less and have more time to explore what we like without any kind of economic implications.”
