> "What's hard about AI that requires special expertise?"
Several years ago on HN there was a blog post which (attempted to) answer this question in detail, and I have been unsuccessfully trying to find it for a long time. The extra facts I can remember about it are:
* It was by a fairly well known academic or industry researcher
* It had reddish graphics showing slices of the problem domain stacking up like slices of bread
* It was on HN, either as a submission or in the comments, between 2016 and 2018.
If anybody knows the URL to this post, I would be stoked!
