Musk says AI and robots needed to fix US deficit

Original: Exclusive: Musk tells Isaacson "AI and robots" will need to fix deficit

Elon Musk told biographer Walter Isaacson, in remarks reported exclusively by Axios, that artificial intelligence and robots will be needed to fix the US budget deficit. Musk has long argued that automation and AI-driven productivity growth are essential to sustaining the economy and government finances, and his comments add to an ongoing debate in Washington about the growing national debt.

Why now: Musk's claim that AI and robotics are the solution to America's fiscal problems is a striking new position in the deficit debate.
