Like Scott Manley says, going from a frequency domain image representation to a time domain sound file is something that is extremely old and does not and has not required AI the last 50 years.

Gaps you could drive the Titanic through. Up-and-comings can only do better if they know better, but all the CS courses teach actively-insecure software development from the very beginning.

We'll never be rid of passwords because every CS course teaches people to create a Users database table with plaintext UserName and Password columns.

We'll never be rid of SQL Injection because every CS course teaches people to concatenate their SQL command strings together with tainted user data instead of using strongly typed Parameters.
