Its great that with such a potentially dangerous, disruptive, and obfuscated technology that people, companies, and societies are taking a careful, measured, and conservative development path...
Move fast and break things, I guess. My take away is that the genie isn't going back in the bottle. Hopefully failing fast and loud gets us through the growing pains quickly, but on an individual level we'd best be vigilant and adapt to the landscape.
Frankly I'd rather these big obvious failures to insidious little hidden ones the conservative path makes. At least now we know to be skeptical. No development path is perfect, if it were more conservative we might get used to taking results at face value, leaving us more vulnerable to that inevitable failure.
Its also a first to market push (which never leads to robust testing), and so we have to hope that each and every one of those mistakes encountered are not existentially fatal.
