8. And you would be wrong. It does much more than fine tuning.

I'm a programmer with an interest in the field and I have come to a different conclusion. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. The AIs have found new alloys, as just one example, which were combinations that never occurred to any metallurgists with years of high level experience in the field. That's not "fine tuning" and it does not come from work the people did categorizing texts. It does come standing on the shoulders of the researchers going decades back, just like any metallurgist stands on the same shoulders. But the machine was able to "think outside the box".
