This is why we need a paradigm change in the way we provide education or program human brains. We need to encourage and enhance creativity/wisdom/consciousness/mindfulness in our learners instead of stifling them, relying on the phenomenon of neuroplasticity. The phenomena of neuroplasticity and synaptogenesis point towards infinite capacities of the human brain; these capacities need to be developed with purposeful and well-directed activities.

In my opinion, AI has the up and down popularity trend since the 60's. The increasing computer processing power provides accuracy of problem-solving, reasoning, and knowledge representation is part of the successful factor. There is also the philosophical debate in ethics, such as machine ethics.
The following article also provides the use of AI on automated processes: Uraikul, V., Chan, C. W., & Tontiwachwuthikul, P. (2007). Artificial intelligence for monitoring and supervisory control of process systems. Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence, 20(2), 115-131.
Thes articles support the need for paradigm changes in AI:
Dagli, C. H. (Ed.). (2012). Artificial neural networks for intelligent manufacturing. Springer Science & Business Media.
Van den Besselaar, P., & Leydesdorff, L. (1996). Mapping change in scientific specialties: A scientometric reconstruction of the development of artificial intelligence. Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 47(6), 415-436.
Read "Dune" by Frank Herbert. He had a very interesting take on AI.
In my very limited understanding of AI, we as a society need to prepare current workers for the possibility of needing to find alternative employment. We also need to ensure children receive the type of education that prepares them for the reality of an AI-rich environment. Many career paths may not be in existence in a short time and schools will need to provide greater guidance on the specific educational direction students take so that they are more likely to find employment.
