Cuban also touched upon artificial intelligence during a one-on-one panel with Watson.

"However much change you saw over the past ten years with the Apple (AAPL) iPhone, that's nothing," Cuban continued. Cuban also claims that Montreal and China are "kicking our ass" with artificial intelligence.

Cuban also expressed concern about technology usurping the current standard of everyday business practices, leaving many unemployed.

"There's going to be a lot of unemployed people replaced with technology and if we don't start dealing with that now, we're going to have some real problems," said Cuban.

People keep trying to downplay this, deny that it's coming or claim that there will be enough new jobs created when it does.

Stop being obtuse. Listen to these CEOs. They aren't being alarmist. They are telling you that they are preparing to put massive amounts of people out of work. Wake the fuck up.
