It's real science fiction. None of these problems are even close to being practical except in the fantasy world created by pop-sci news outlets.
I was hoping for a serious discussion about the problems on the forefront of machine learning.
Well that's why they're courting not just experts, but "strong experts" of machine learning, whatever that means :P
It must be experts who have worked out in the OpenAI Gym. Apparently by playing video games.

DARPA's already put 10s of millions into #3. What do you know that they and their teams don't?

You mean the government wastes money?
edit: The DARPA site you linked above calls it a "fully automated computer security challenge". They are not claiming it's AI.

That's a ignorant cheap shot. Speculative, risky research is costly because lots of things don't work.

Show me a definition of AI that would include papers published at NIPS/ICML or even AAAI and wouldn't include the same techniques as are used in the DARPA Grand Challenge.
AI is just a label, it isn't something magical.
