I guess that's sort of my point though isn't it? A, SVMs, etc. aren't really called AI because they're not. Because AI carries a connotation and once you understand A it's obvious that it's not really AI. Won't the same be true of today's neural networks? Granted they've been given a name which should add some longevity but when a layperson thinks "AI" they think a robot which acts like a human, they think AGI. If someone had an AI algorithm which could start to demonstrate more AGI leanings I bet the AI effect wouldn't apply.

When cars came out they killed quite a number of people in accidents and mechanical failures. They were just so much better than horses we kept on improving them.
That's how I see AI. People will surely get injures and even die in Accidents. We are a humanist society where human life is valued above everything else, so I'm very optimistic that AI will get better and give their humans more divine powers and longer life over time.
