I'm Data Scientist and the hype is making me really jaded about the whole thing. I work in a customer facing role and it's just painful to see how many sensible and solvable problems with ML/Deep Learning get buried and destroyed under the pile of hype of solving unrealistic "sexy" problems with "AI." It was okay when Machine Learning was the hot thing, it's been awful since "AI" became the hot thing.
