Elon Musk: Humans must merge with machines or become irrelevant in AI age
&gt; Musk explained what he meant by saying that computers can communicate at &quot;a trillion bits per second&quot;, while humans, whose main communication method is typing with their fingers via a mobile device, can do about 10 bits per second.<p>Humans communicate in much more complex ways than computers. Facial expressions, intonation, language, body language, etc. All things we do not quite understand.<p>Elon Musk is a little arrogant due to his success in business and likes to make &#x27;fun&#x27; predictions based on his very limited understanding of whatever field he happens to be talking about. He sounds like an eager undergrad student that tries to demonstrate his genius to his professors and the class. I don&#x27;t understand how anyone can take him seriously in technical fields.
