AI Epic #Fails in 2017

Although we are learning about AI and Machine Learning here on fast.ai (and we are able to do some amazing stuff.) there have also apparently been a number of epic #fails for AI this past year as well.

Happened onto this interesting article today. Thought that folks might find this interesting/humorous.

What #fails have you seen?
What are your thoughts on why they might have happened?
Do you have any ideas about how we might avoid such problems in the future?

Nice article here as well - even Yan LeCun really liked it :). I am also thinking about focusing on failures rather than on creating something.

LeCun hated it. I largely agree with him… :slight_smile:

Yeah, I know. :slight_smile:
