Zero impact?

AI is involved in things from writing laws to taking drive through orders.

Zero impact is an exaggeration, but what others have pointed out is that there aren't a lot of companies primarily based on AI which are making a profit. Personally I can't think of any.
And it will create horrible un-debuggable bugs, human-killing causalities and who knows what more. Welcome to Idiocracy.
So far I've found the bugs that it writes to be indistinguishable from the bugs that I'd write. Like, you look at it and think:

> Oh I see what you were going for, but no...

It's learning its deficiencies from us. That's concerning for many reasons, but "un-dubuggable bugs" is pretty far down on the list for me.
