Abstract
As a set of technologies, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has received growing interest from a variety of fields. However, many fundamental questions about AI are still mysteries to the everyday person.

The authors believe this basic understanding of AI and its shortcomings is vital, and the advancement of the field should be matched by the advancement in public understanding of AI.
