          Why The World Needed An Elon Musk: Musk, A hero that will always foil the villains. How does he manage to do that? It's quite simple, he knows the difference between right and wrong.

But artificial intelligence is remarkably close to imitating all human behaviors; a scary thought, yes?  Will writing original prose or spending a slew of hours painting a masterful work of art go by the wayside?
