Personally, I don't get the worldwide current obsession with A.I. We're constantly told it's going to do everything a human being can do and better, but it certainly won't. It can approximate and generate end results based on what it's trained to learn and/or look for, but it will never be able to replicate human consciousness to the point that a program can actually understand how to observe a 2-dimensional image that has never existed in 3 dimensions (e.g. artwork that an artist has drawn and which is a stylised/distorted/exaggerated version of things from the real world) and be able to figure out what steps would need to be taken to authentically create that as if it existed in the real world. It would be like training a monkey to play the piano, but only because you're forcing it with punishment and rewards to associate pressing certain notes when you whip it or something.
Plus, add to the fact that the human unconscious and subconscious minds can't be measured, mapped or replicated: components which are vital and necessary to genuinely understand and interface with reality.
So, what I mean is: I wouldn't worry about it. :)
