I have a very surface level understanding of AI, and yet this always seemed obvious to me. It's almost a fundamental law of the universe that complexity of any kind has a long tail. So you can get AI to faithfully replicate 90% of a particular domain skill. That's phenomenal, and by itself can yield value for companies. But the journey from 90%-100% is going to be a very difficult march.

The nines comment was in the context of self driving cars which I can see because you are never perfect driving and accidents can be fatal.
Some AI is like chess though, where they steadily advance in ELO ranking.
