Always remember that it will only get better, never worse.

They said "computers will never do x" and now x is assumed.

There's a difference between "this is AI that could be better!" and "this could one day turn into AI."

Everyone is calling their algorithms AI because it's a buzzword that trends well.

Shit as dumb as decision trees are considered AI. As long as there's an if-statement somewhere in the app, they can slap the label AI on it, and it's technically correct.

That's not technically correct unless the thresholds in those if statements are updated on the information gained for the data.
