On November 19, 2014, Mark Zuckerberg invited Elon Musk to have dinner at his home in Palo Alto, California with two other Facebook executives to have a discussion over artificial intelligence.
Earlier, Elon Musk, the CEO of Space X, Co-founder and product architect of Tesla, expressed his worry regarding the AI threat to humanity in interview and social media. “AI is potentially more dangerous than nukes”. He was afraid of the fact that “If we create machines that are smarter than humans, they could turn against us.”
According to a New York Times report, in the dinner hosted by Mr. Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook, the Facebook group attempted to convince Mr. Musk that his concern was wrong. Neither of the two CEOs would talk in detail about the discussion.

The future evolution of AI is predicted to bring about inevitable risks; therefore, sets of principles and standards for AI exploitations and applications must be developed so that we are able to take best control of possibilities. AIWS is one of the outstanding initiatives of MDI aiming at creating general moral standards which are expected to keep AI developing safely and pacifically.
