In Wired, this article discusses the current state of AI:

It discusses how Deep Mind can master the game of Go and Watson can win at Jeopardy!, but they would be helpless if they were asked to play Monopoly.
We've had discussions with the Watson people. They are attempting to broaden the use of their technology. I believe that it is very strong at processing large amounts of data and searching for specific answers to known problems. Where I believe that the technology falls short is in providing insight into the questions that haven't been asked yet.
We'll see how AI continues to develop. Thankfully, we are still a long way from complete domination by our computer overlords!
