Solving cancer also has an unusual level of specification. Many real world problems have that characteristic.

Where did you read that?
"Cancer" is not just a single disease, even though we layman use the term that way. Cancer is a family of diseases, each probably having their own specific solution, but even in each of these individual diseases, there is no specification at the level of any open maths problem.
I really meant solving a specific cancer disease for a specific individual, which will require individualized medicine, which will require us to leverage AI to make it possible to do for the general population as opposed to doing it just for Lance Armstrong and the like.
I know I'm an optimist, but I really think AI is gonna result in drastically improved healthcare for a much lower price.
The real world is so messy, and specifically cancer/biology is insanely messy and certainly not well specified.
You should close chatgpt and read a book sometime.
