So is AI the name for algorithms that do the work humans (in Western societies) <i>still</i> do, or did until <i>recently</i>?<p>&gt; human command will move to higher and higher levels of abstraction<p>So am I on a different level of abstraction when a human is driving my taxi than when a computer does it? ;)
