As usual, the monks know what the laity doesn't, and aren't particularly afraid to talk about it. Also as usual, there's still a yawning gap between what domain experts are up to and what non-domain experts think they're up to.
That this is true in AI is not surprising; humility comes from knowing that my domain expertise in some fields (and thus a clearer picture of 'what's really going on') is guaranteed to be crippled in other fields. Knowing that by being in some knowledge in-groups requires me to also be in some knowledge out-groups is the beginnings of a sane approach to the world.
