AI is completely overrated. I have already recommended the following two books:
What computers can't do - The Limits of Artificial Intelligence and
Mind over Machine
Hubert L. Dreyfus and Stuart E. Dreyfus
Anyone who has read these and compares them with the current state of AI knows that not much has changed in 50 years. Some things have improved, such as the pattern recognition process, so that today you can easily identify faces, but of course only if you have corresponding images as templates.
AI is excellent at tasks that do not require human intuition, but rather a rigid workflow. For example, AI programs were already being used 30 years ago to analyze blood to see whether and how much blood alcohol a "sports driver" had. This analysis process is always the same. Perfect for AI.
