Yeah the problem is where would you put in the command to maximize paperclips? Even though deep learning is very powerful, it doesn't contain a utility function. The utility function to maximize paperclips would be some kind of module separate from a set of deep learning nets that would coordinate and read inputs from all the nets and then somehow give commands to some actuators somewhere (which it would also need intelligence about). All those deep learning networks would have to already be tuned to be very accurate in their own right before they are hooked up to any kind of controller.
That was my point that, AI has been confused with the deep learning gains in the past years, even though, the hard part about how to coordinate all those inputs and also give the right commands to actuators is still not near to solved, much less a completely virtual superintelligence that has its own "virtual" goals and virtual simulations of both its inputs and potential actuators in the real world. This would be akin to a kind of intelligence algorithm, and not deep learning vector algorithms that reveal structures in data.
