You can sit down for a game of Go or StarCraft against an AI, and it will wipe the floor with you.

But if you want it control a robot that's going to bring out a pot of tea while you play, you'll be wiping the floor.

This made me giggle like a dumbass. Thanks. I participate on the SC2 AI community. It is a-lot of fun. I use Python and CPP for my ML. The game matches are so unpredictable which makes the project questionable because the AI indeed smashes any opponent.
Even just laying bricks or picking fruit seems well beyond machines as of yet, despite all the promises to eliminate toil.
