AI, not so clear. In my view, AI is a catch-all term
for "software whose properties are unknown and probably unknowable".
Someone recently on Hacker News talked about the possibility of neural net
models to translate code for other architectures. The best response to this
idea described it as a "turbo SIGILL generator."
The mental image of a CPU ramming into a silicon brick wall, reversing and
doing it again, over and over, possibly infinitely (the halting problem) comes
irresistibly to mind.
