It's called Moravec's paradox. Basically the AI things that we thought would be easy ("computer vision, pfft, give it a few months") turned out to be really really hard. And the AI/computer things that we thought would be hard were actually not that hard (Some scenes of Star Trek: The Next Generation have data pausing for a moment to return the result of a query. Google has faster response times today)
