His fears were aroused by a report from Vladimir Putin that “artificial intelligence is the prospect, not only for Russia but for all humankind … It begins with large opportunities, but also threats that are hard to guess. Whoever matches the leader in this field will become the leader of the world.”

Hashing out his feelings in public, Musk explained that he was not just concerned about the possibility of a world leader causing the war, but also of an overcautious AI ruling “that a pre-emptive strike is the most likely path to victory”.

He’s less concerned about North Korea’s frequently bold nuclear purposes, arguing that the result for Pyongyang, if they started a nuclear missile “, would be self-destruction” – and that it doesn’t have any complications that would point to a world war even if it did. His opinion is that AI is “vastly further risky” than the Kim Jong-un-led country.

Musk’s fear of AI combat has been a driving power in his public comments for a long time. Last month, he was one of higher than 100 signatories calling for a UN-led ban of deadly autonomous weapons.

“Once advanced, lethal autonomous defenses will permit armed struggle to be fought on a scale larger than ever, and at timescales quicker than humans can comprehend,” the letter read. “These can be threats of terror, weapons that dictators and terrorists use against natural populations, and weapons chopped to behave in undesirable ways.

“We do not have hard to act. Once this Pandora’s box is opened, it will be difficult to close.”
