Seems like the interviewer focuses a lot on juicy questions where Bengio does not have highly developed answers. (Q: AI for War? A: Bad)
Where his opinions are more interesting is the last questions, outside of the articles agenda of "stuff to freak out about."

Anyone know (or can guess) if he's refering to anything specific when he (I'm connecting dots) using deep learning to "learn causality?"
