Agree.

Well, we could go on and both claim our statements are true. OR you just follow the link of my initial post and read a book that simply states facts published by the UN, and you would see for yourself that the rates of poverty, child mortality and mass inequality have become much better in the course of the last 30-50 years.

It's sad that a well paid person and probably smart person like Demis Hassabis is so wrong in his view about how the world is.

To quote the article quoting Hassabis, "The reason I say that is that if you look at the challenges that confront society: climate change, sustainability, mass inequality — which is getting worse — diseases, and healthcare, we're not making progress anywhere near fast enough in any of these areas."

Fortunately, that's not true, as is shown in Factfulness: http://a.co/d/cau5vUv
