4. Stephen Hawking, while inaugurating the Artificial Intelligence Research Center at the University of Cambridge in 2016, warned the world about the advantages and disadvantages of this technology. He had said that Artificial Intelligence technology would prove effective in eradicating poverty and diseases. But this technology will also bring ruin in the form of powerful automatic weapons.
5. Stephen Hawking, in 2007, despite a disability, flew in a specially designed plane without gravity. He remained in a gravity-free zone for several stages of 25-25 seconds.
