While there are domains where AI is having successes, the current general expectation is far ahead of where the technology is. People think (and in part due to the marketing like IBM is putting out) that ML/AI can do things that aren't possible yet.

There may be a reset in expectation soon which will lead to become more pessimistic at claims being made and the marketing. Once we are through that, it will be easier to get people to understand what use cases align with the available technology and implementing ML/AI will become more productive. Aka the Trough of Disillusionment followed by the plateau of productivity.
