"So it's what you do with the invention that's important. And with AI, it's exactly the same.

"Let me start by saying what we should not be looking at, which, unfortunately, a lot of well-informed development agencies are – and they call it climate-proofing cities.

"I work with Congress and some of the leaders in the intelligence community.
