That’s fair, but I don’t think it explains the “well defined” part of the claim.

They problem is so ill defined that it sometimes has to be modeled as random events instead of a deterministic physical process.

What I mean to convey by "well defined" is that even though the problem space of self driving cars is enormous, the success criteria of teaching a car to self drive is probably going to look pretty similar in 10 years to what it looks like now.

Bots on the other hand changes constantly - what is the definition of an abusive bot? What is the definition of spam? The adversaries on Twitter adapt not only their tactics but also their goals.
