This is sort of the interesting thing with AI. It's a moving target. Every time when an AI problem gets cracked, it's "yea but that's not really AI, just a stupid hack". Take autonomous cars. Sure, Musk is over-hyping, but we are making progress. I imagine it will go something like: Step 1) support for drivers (anti sleep or colision).. done? Step 2) autonomous driving in one area, perfect conditions, using expensive sensors Step n) gradual iteration removes those qualifications one by one .. yes, it will take 10/20 years before cars can drive autonomously in chaotic conditions such as "centre of Paris in the rain". But at each of those steps value is created, and at each step people will say "yea but..".
