We have a history of moving the goalposts for artificial intelligence.

First, it was "an AI could never beat a human at chess."
...Then DeepBlue won in 1997. We said, "Okay, but that's not real intelligence, it's just brute force."

Then, it was "an AI could never win at Go."
...Then AlphaGo won in 2016. We said, "Sure, but that's just a game. It's not general intelligence."

This is the "AI Effect." As soon as we figure out how to make a machine do something, we no longer consider it intelligent. This is because we're measuring the wrong thing.
