When AI is created incorrectly and therefore is dysfunctional and ignorant; vs. a new form of superior intellect.
All the hype about the future of AI was ruined by its true essence of ARTIFICIAL IGNORANCE that made it worthless.

(Adjective) - A category of person or organization that goes out of their way to avoid knowing or learning about something so as to avoid responsibility or duty to act.
Usually associated with someone who exhibits either a general lack of intellectural curiosity or just plain burned out in their careers so they don't even try to improve themselves. These individuals are motivated by a strong desire to be the opposite of the "go-to-guy" so as to discourage requests for help or challenging assignments.

Boy that Wally sure is "aggressively-ignorant"- when I asked for help he claimed to never have used the copier before - and he sits right next to it!

The seemingly oxymoronic state one holds after being briefed on an important issue that they themselves recognize as deserving of further investigation, and then having made the conscious decision not to learn anything more about it.
Example 1.
Dude A: Hey dude, wanna go to that lecture on the ongoing genocide in Darfur?
Dude B: Nah, no thanks dude. I'm happy with my informed ignorance.
Example 2.
Hippies often try to make you feel guilty about your own informed ignorance.

Saying "slash ignore" to someone means you don't want to hear what they are saying. From MMORPGs (e.g. WoW), where the command "/ignore" hides all messages from a specified user.

Doing something that you think will make work easier but having your boss tell you that you are a dumbass until the crack fog clears and you can continue doing your job. Most people that are piss ignorant are short guys that wear 1988 calculator watches, wear a rain suit on a dry summer day, generally any oilfield hand or no matter what they do is never good enough or never right in decision making

When Joe read the newspaper every morning, he knowingly skipped over the articles about car crashes, even though they were happening all around him. A fine example of wilful ignorance!
