Winter is a cyclical concept, just like all the other seasons. It will be no different here; the pendulum swings back and forth. The unknown factor is the length of the cycle.
I still have to understand why you think another AI winter is coming.
Everyyyybody is using it, everybody is racing to invent the next big thing.
What could go wrong?

_That is what an AI winter is_.
Like, if you look at the previous ones, it's a cycle of over-hype, over-promising, funding collapse after the ridiculous over-promising does not materialise. But the tech tends to hang around. Voice recognition did not change the world in the 90s, but neither did it entirely vanish once it was realised that there had been over-promising, say.
We have already been through winter.Ffor those of us old enough to remember, the OP was making a very clear statement.

Java Spring.
Google summer.
AI autumn.
Nuclear winter.
This seems like a strange comment to make since the above comment in no way suggests that we are currently in an AI winter.
I assume they’re referring to the previous one.
