How is it possible that deep neural networks are so easily fooled?

First up, those images (even the first few) aren't complete trash despite being junk to humans; they're actually finely tuned with various advanced techniques, including another neural network. The ...

Is there any research on the development of attacks against artificial intelligence systems?

Yes, there is some research on this topic, which can be called adversarial machine learning, which is more an experimental field. An adversarial example is an input similar to the ones used to train ...
