AI is non-deterministic, which should be a showstopper right there. What sane nation would trust a non-deterministic system, for example, to control aircraft in flight? (Or cars on the road?) But, in our infinite hubris, that is exactly what we'll try to do.

We should have stopped at regular expressions.

I can websearch it, but what is non-deterministic?

Actually AI as it currently exists as a technology is completely deterministic. Given the same model, the same training set, the same pseudo-random number generation seeds, and the same input data, you will get the same output... exactly, simply because every element in it, including the ‘random numbers’ that may appear in different parts of the algorithm are all deterministic functions. Only logic races on parallel hardware may violate that, but that’s considered ‘bad design’ practice and mitigated in modern frameworks such as Pytorch and TensorFlow.

Are you asserting that, in contrast, the human-based systems we currently have in place are not non-deterministic?!
