According to Bill Gates, A.I. could destroy Google Search and Amazon as we know them.

Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft, believes that the future leader in artificial intelligence will likely have developed a digital agent that can perform specific tasks for individuals.

The technology will be so advanced that it may significantly alter user behaviour. "Whoever wins the personal agent, that's the big deal, because you'll never again visit a search site, a productivity site, or Amazon," he said.
