I found this a very interesting article making clear what AI or machine learning is able to do.</p> <p>The bitterness comes from the point of view that doing <em>search and learning</em> at scale is like &ldquo;brute force&rdquo;. All approaches to build a system which tried to implement the human knowledge reached a plateau relatively fast. The automated learning could be scaled and could beat the expert systems.</p>
