Yeah devs aren't really in control when they feed in the datasets. Over time, there will be manipulation/pollution of datasets whether deliberate or unwittingly and it can have unexpected results. Any system that really needs to be logical should really think if it wants that attack vector. For things like idea generation this may be good, for standard data gets or decision trees that have liability, probably not.

Unity game engine has an ad network that this happened to, one quarter their ads were really out of wack and it was due to bad datasets. AI can be a business risk because it did cause revenue issues. We are going to be hearing more and more of these stories.
