How COMPLIANT is your Artificial Intelligence?

The question: "What are you doing, Daddy?" one sunny afternoon resulted in an attempt to explain Machine Learning (ML) to my eight-year-old daughter; we are homeschooling, after all. I was sat at my desk and she was interested in what I was doing. "I'm trying to explain to this chap that Artificial Intelligence isn't something you can apply to compliance yet." Well, that opened a massive can of worms in my eight-year-old's brain. Let us start with compliance.
