Quick Glance: Google to Surpass Microsoft in AI Investment, DeepMind CEO Affirms

- Hassabis emphasized the need to avoid an artificial intelligence arms race that could lead to risky decisions and highlighted the importance of society starting to think about the types of architectures being built as we approach achieving artificial general intelligence.
