but do they like a diagnosis from artificial intelligence as opposed toa human artificial intelligence, and to help and support them through treatment. it is unlikely because relationship things will be substituted by technology of this sort. our first question from a viewer says will robots replace doctors? absolutely not. doctors do quite a lot, they do a wide range of activities. a very small part of what they do is actually analysis. machines tend to be very good at that. i'm a visit this —— i'm a physicist and they used to spend a lot of time doing calculations but that is done for me nice to i can think about the physics. we will release the doctors to become more human while the machines can to the more computational stuff. it sounds like an ideal world. another question from geraldine this time, will artificial intelligence diagnosis become the norm rather than tiling 111 ? become the norm rather than tiling 111? is this possible that in future decades ai will take over from the kind of system? i'm not sure it will com pletely ta ke over kind of system? i'm not sure it will com

artificial intelligence seems to have no limit. i can imagine a world whe it's ai from ai and it's so far removed from human control. i'd like to considehat and give a chance to respond to some of these points. i want to raise one another in the deliberation which is this point you raised about design. at what point in the chain should responsibility go back? technology doesn't just happen, it's human beings are writing this code. at what point in that design phase doesn't bring responsibilities back. i want to agree with what they both said and along with the paradigm shift in technology we are also seeing a paradigm shift in the law. they botalked a what we need that's new in the law and they also brought forward some old concepts of law and i wanted to really raise with you whether they are right on that second part. one of the things i think has happened as a result of drone technology is that the united states no longer sees the clear division between war and peace that used to see. we are carrying out our targeted killings in

leader who made mistakes and learn from them we believe that in this new era of artificial intelligence and smart machines and all of the opportunity and problems that are coming at us we need to learn ahead of time and understand what mistakes could be made in order to then harness the tremendous potential that lies in front of us with artificial intelligence i think anyone with with a little bit of common sense would agree with you mr burton hopefully we do learn from our mistakes because i think there are plenty of mistakes out there for us to learn from mr all of we appreciate you being on the show tonight thanks for having me. well the day is nearly done but as always the conversation continues online you'll find us on twitter either at the w news you can write to me t.v. don't forget to use the hash tag the day and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day we'll see you again right here on monday. peaceful appearances can be deceptive. rival gangs fight on chicago's west side and hundreds of people are murdered on the mean streets of the city every yea

artificial intelligence has no limit at this point and it is happening so fast. i can imagine a world in which ai against ai, it is meaningless in terms of having a military advantage. i would like to consider that and also give mary ellen a chance to respond to these points. i want to raise one other point in your deliberation which was the point you raised about design, at what point in the chain should responsibility go back? technology doesn't just happen, it is human beings actually writing this code. at what point do you bring responsibility back and make sure the ethics in law are baked into the writing of the code? >> i want to agree with much of what charlie and jerome said and hone in and pick out for our further discussion whether along with the paradigm shift in technology, we are seeing an accompanying paradigm shift in the law. both talked about what we need that is new in the law, but both also brought forward old concepts of law. i want to raise with you whether they are right on the second part. one of the things i think has happened as a result

we have been using artificial intelligence for a long time.ceen pricing with artificial intelligence for 20 years. the pace is picking up. it is going to rip through the service industry. example, your car gets wrecked and you go to one of our drive ends we meet you at a body shop. today, you take 22 pictures and we settle the claim in eight hours instead of seven days. we don't need those drive-through's and we don't need auto adjusters --. employees to our have the skills to do what they need to do? involvedny people are in what you just described versus 10 years ago? >> i don't know the number from 10 years ago but in just auto adjusters, we went down from .000 we went down 800. we let 550 people go. the good news is they got jobs with other companies. this technology is going to take over. >> when you say it's going to rip through the economy. it described that. what will it look like i've years from now? tell five or 10 years out. thatzie has done some work said in the world 375 million jobs will go away. in the u.s. it is something like

google trying his hand at another venture using artificial intelligence to predict whether a hospitallive or die. is this really a good direction for the medical world to be heading. dr. mark siegel, thank you for joining us. i think this is incredibly odd and i don't think i would want to do this but this algorithm put together by google is 95% accurate predicting whether a patient would pass away within 24 hours of being admitted to the hospital where otherwise the hospital, 86% rate. >> it is absurd, i think it is obscene. let me say the idea of artificial intelligence and what google is doing is not a bad thing because it can help doctors to make diagnoses faster. heather: is a bad thing in that respect? >> i have taken care of patients for many years and i don't know when a patient is going to die even using all my ideas and everything i know about the patient and the disease. this new treatment coming down the pike every single day can change that equation. i don't want to take away patient's hope by saying according to google you have a day left. it is not accurate. it takes aw
