We need to really cut down on the whole "we're doomed because of AI narrative". People watched too much "I Robot" and similar movies. There is a big gap between a staged demo and any strong AI, which doesn't exist yet. I remember demos of Microsoft/Skype doing translations in real time few years ago, or reproducing someone's voice. Where is that technology now? Nowhere, because it's one thing to stage a demo in perfect conditions with a good training set, and another thing to make a generic solution.
