Maybe it's not a great list, but as far as I know, adversarial attacks are still a major unsolved research problem. Why pretend otherwise? They belong on the list, don't you think?

I'm not trying to pretend otherwise. Of the problems on this list, I think adversarial examples and bias are real problems.

It's a personal opinion that adversarial examples will always exist (they exist for pretty much all kinds of machine learning models), and that they might exist for human vision too.
