An AI pioneer says the technology is ‘limited' and won't replace humans anytime soon

Andrew Ng, AI pioneer and educator, said AI is powerful yet limited and unlikely to broadly replace humans in the near future.
Ng said the training stage contains the biggest unanswered questions, noting persistent hallucinations and mental-health impacts that increase scrutiny of capital expenses for training.
Ng said inference demand is massive, and the industry will need many more data centers as GPUs, once for gaming, now power top AI infrastructure.
Ng warned against stifling rules from one or two anecdotes and urged transparency laws like SB 53 and the RAISE Act, advising people to keep learning to code.
Given his platform and credentials, Ng's views carry influence and he contended parts of today's AI landscape resemble a bubble even as commercial value rises; he co-founded Google Brain, founded Coursera and DeepLearning.ai, and has over 2.3 million followers on LinkedIn.
