Why IBM's CEO disagrees with Warren Buffett's stance on AI

At the annual Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-A,BRK-B) shareholders meeting, Warren Buffett spoke on a range of subjects including his concerns about AI. The CEO compared the dangers of AI's potential misuse to that of nuclear weapons. IBM (IBM) CEO Arvind Krishna joins Yahoo Finance Anchors Brian Sozzi and Akiko Fujita at the Annual Milken Global Institute Conference to discuss why he disagrees with Warren Buffett's stance on AI. Krishna dismisses the danger: "I actually have no such fear. So I'm putting it black and white. I think there's a lot of people who hypothesize, and as you have seen in many technologies, thinking that the rate of progress which has been 100 times over the last 3, 4 years, is going to be another 100 to 1000 times.
