Exactly. And Elon Musk is 100% right, and if you personally cannot figure it out (and many of you cannot, unfortunately) it's your funeral. You simply cannot see the forest for the trees, preferring minute and trivial points over the next several years from the epic, genuine, real arguments -- military AI arms race, including terrorists and true enemies -- and the "control problem" which quite soon will prove to be our undoing, as true robots excel in every way over ordinary pitiful human beings. This is the real, critical issue, and just because VR and AR and amazing prosthetics are the good side of AI does not mean the opposite is false. They both can be true -- of course -- and it's the downside that will mean that human beings are history, eliminated except for a few pets, in our lifetime, unless the insane military option does it, before the robots do.
