While tech giants across the world work on materializing the idea of having a generative artificial intelligence (AI) to aid humans in their daily lives, the risk of the nascent technology going rogue remains imminent. Considering this possibility, Tesla (NASDAQ:) and Twitter chief Elon Musk reminded the people of AI’s potential to destroy civilization.

On March 15, Musk’s plan of creating a new AI startup surfaced after the entrepreneur was reportedly assembling a team of AI researchers and engineers. However, Musk continues to highlight the destructive potential of AI — just like any other technology — if it goes into the wrong hands or is being developed with ill intentions.
