Aside from the frighteningly near-term prediction, the other thing that seemed to give Musk's comment import was the mention of DeepMind, a very real company he has invested in that works in the artificial intelligence space.

"The pace of progress in artificial intelligence (I'm not referring to narrow AI) is incredibly fast," said Musk. "Unless you have direct exposure to groups like Deepmind, you have no idea how fast ? it is growing at a pace close to exponential."

Later, Musk went on to claim that his view is shared by others working in the space.
Good times
