A lot of movies gave the impression that making phone calls and balancing checkbooks would be the easiest tasks for consumer AI to solve, while math and science might require exceedingly advanced AI. Turns out to be the opposite: computers are great at math and bad at conversation.
That's because movies were based on the "general" nature of AI, assuming we would create intelligence that would learn and grow.
Pretty much the opposite of what we can't up with, if you're willing to call what we have intelligence.
