How do you use genetic engineering to get efficient travel routing would be
an interesting story, unless the Amazon delivery drivers are efficiently
routing something other than cardboard boxes, LOL.....
Indeed, when you position AI like this, with this kind of limited
expectation out of it - it's "successful" (although, seriously, least cost
routing algorithms that don't involve AI have been around for decades)
But when it's gonna drive a car - hell no.

Yes, and since the data it's being trained on is being built from the
questions it's asked, all you have to do is ask stupid questions and you
will contaminate the database and get garbage answers out of it.

"properly developed" is the key, there. The last federal election sorta
proved that much of the human intelligence in the country - isn't.
