I really hate that we are calling this wave of technology "AI", because it isn't. It is "Machine Learning" sure, but it is just brute force pattern recognition v2.0.
The desired outcomes you define and then the data you train it on both have a LOT of built-in biases.
It's a cool technology I guess, but it's being misused across the board. It is being overused and misused by every company with FOMO. Hoping to get some profit edge on the competition. How about we have AI replace the bullshit CEO and VP positions instead of trying to replace fast food drive through workers and Internet content.
I guess that's nothing new for humans... One human invents the spear for fishing and the rest use them to hit each other over the head.
I agree with most of your points, but i don't entirely like the "this is not intelligence" line of thought. We don't even know yet how to define intelligence, and pattern recognition sounds a LOT like what our brains do. The hype is of course ridiculous, and the ways it's being used is just stupid, but i do think pattern recognition could be a solid basis for whatever we end up considering intelligence.
Pattern recognition is one thing that our brains do, it is a very long way away from the only thing our brains do.

But yeah, that's the kind of discussion i'd love to see in more depth :). When would an AI be considered intelligent? It used to be passing the turing test, but now that's being achieved the goalposts are moving, and that's maybe for a good reason, but what will be the actual measure :).
