My biggest fear at the moment is that some people may get caught up in the hype and not acknowledge AI’s limitations. I fear that they may consider AI infallible and convince everyone else of that belief, and because of that, people may end up using machine learning for critical tasks it is not prepared to perform safely. Maybe they’ll manage to have fully autonomous buses roam busy streets. However, while current AI is a good pretender, sooner or later, it ends up making surprisingly silly—and potentially devastating—mistakes.
