No change from when Go was released AFAIK: Go has no reliability/failover story (whether locally or in terms of distribution), uncaught panics will bring down the entire system, and the runtime has no support for routine hierarchies.

So I guess you'd choose Go if you want to build a local service — especially if it has some amount of concurrency (e.g. network daemons) — or CLI tools (fast startup). You'd use erlang if you want to build a system which really should not die, especially if it so should not die that you're willing to spread it over multiple physical machines.
