[D] The problem with anthropomorphizing AI
When you start to humanize (current) AI technologies and describe them in ways you would talk about persons, you can draw all the wrong conclusions. This happens often when we see AI algorithms perform tasks that were previously thought to be off-limits for computers, such as playing Go or detecting cancer or converting text to speech.
Without a reality check on the capabilities and limits of current AI, we tend to have trumped up expectations of what AI can do for us, and become disenchanted when those expectations aren’t met.
