Supposedly Google/Chrome embodies state-of-the-art ? Why are 90% of the GMail ads I dismiss clearly mis-targeted ? Today's high-point: an ad for (women) "panties for period." Worst offender: some company, "brandzooka," that claims to have "seen my video;" I've dismissed their ad at least six times as 'irrelevant or 'intrusive. I assume these companies are paying big buck$ for these injected into e-mail ads.
Visual Studio latest: the slightest typo, and so-called 'Intellisense' will cough-up some 30-character method name that is totally out of context ... that's not even accessible to my knowledge from the current project's active references and active 3rd. party controls, or whatever. Disclaimer: ReSharper may be part of this.
So, "Artificial Intelligence," when are you going to be really useful ?

AI isn't supposed to be helpful. It's supposed to be an intrusive totalitarian tool whose intent is to bind us into servitude for the good of the collective. Failing that, humans are to be recycled into a form of energy that is easily digestible by our AI overlords.

I agree, John, the salvation, though is the fact that the universe is creating so many morons that thr AI will be reduced to nothing!
Imagine a massive DOS attack caused by a universe full of morons all using AI at once!!

To me it seems likely it will never be.
They have been attempting it for 70 years. There are many examples of things that have rapidly progressed in that time frame and AI is not it.
The only progression is applications that are better at pattern matching. Pattern matching however is not thinking.

Ok. So you tried using the codeproject search engine using the term "artificial intelligence" ... and no articles were returned?
I suspect there's nothing "artificial" about anything artificial.

Question of the day:
Why are all artificial things made using real things?

Oh, VS? Here's something I discovered in VS 2015 over the last few days (I just confirmed that it doesn't do this in VS 2010).
Copy the following C# code into VS:
int x = 0 ;
using ( System.IO.TextWriter t = System.Console.Out
int y = 0 ;
int z = 0 ;
Then close the parentheses of the using statement.

Artificial Intelligence compared to Machine Learning. Partly a marketing gaff that got way out of hand, and related to the discussions last year which had the scientist actually working on AI, angry with the comments from people like Elon Musk that AI needs laws implementing.
current AI is very infant.
Machine Learning which you have lots of things being done, such as your email spam handling.
Machine Learning is more specific at what it is trying to do. Have multiple Machine-Learned tools which can be called on for when they are appropriate.
Want shopping - call Amazon Alexa.
Want generic image recognition - call googles image .
Want image recognition for different hot dogs - call the HotDog image learned one which is better on hotdogs then the generic one, but bad on everything else.

It is really useful...to Google, as evidenced by the ad revenue. As far as your experience, Google knows what is best for you, resistance is futile.

The trouble is, no one can define what intelligence is. It's one of those terms like consciousness, spirituality and so on.
We think we know it when we see it, but we're all really just blind people trying to describe the entirety of an elephant based on what we feel from where we are standing.
The best we can do at the moment is approximate certain qualities.
But that's merely my perspective.

AI is the old saying: if you don't make decision then someone or something will make it for you. Most of the time, you won't like the out come.

You seem to assume that the AI is trained to deliver meaningful ads. It isn't. It's trained to sell. And if that requires driving you crazy first, that's what it will do! Then, once you're at the stage where you dismiss almost every ad, they'll start inserting relevant ads, and if you don't immediately buy that stuff, they start posting unrelated ads again until you do. In the end they'll get you to buy everything out of fear they'll start flooding you with irrelevant ads again! 
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)
