   Elon Musk: AI will be smarter than any human around the end of next year

   While Musk says superintelligence is coming soon, one critic says prediction is "batsh*t crazy."

     @Gargron @arstechnica I have yet to encounter any form of machine or artificial intelligence that actually impresses me. Is it able to scan a lot of documents and images quickly? Yes. Is that impressive? Not really.

     @arstechnica And people still think of this guy as a roll model figure or something like that?

     @arstechnica In fairness, it's likely that AI is already smarter than he is. Low bar.

     @arstechnica although my knowledge of coprology is very parochial, I think the batshit diagnoses is correct.

     @arstechnica Simply look at the rest of his predictions and you can guess how this one will end.

     Spoiler: He has the same level of accuracy as religious people predicting the end of the world.

     @arstechnica Just remember he always lies so expect this on the same timeline scale as his autopilot lies.

     @arstechnica another prediction from a person that famously cannot predict anything accurately? How's this news?

     @arstechnica who actually believes what Muskie says given his poor track record: Telsa "Self Driving", any "mission" to Mars or the Moon, underground "roads" in Vegas, and the dumpster fire formerly known as Twitter

     @arstechnica arguably, AI is smarter than Musk already, humans not so much

     @arstechnica Musk, Trump et al says dumb batcrap crazy stuff and they have a fine track record of that. Don't report it as news, put in the rich loon of the day section. That goes to what Ars reported yesterday about SpaceX and Mars - it was an obvious PR attempt to deflect any reporting about his deposition that he couldn't get sealed and hopefully get few more sucker VCs to bail his company out.
