It's difficult to say. We're certainly making impressive advances now, but this is not the first time that AI has had a period of rapid improvement. The first and second AI winters were both preceded by periods of intense optimism [1]. I personally believe in the long-term vision of AI/ML/RL. Progress will continue to be made in the long run. However, we don't know what we don't know. We may hit a wall in a few years that takes decades to overcome. On the other hand, perhaps the current rate of innovation will continue for the forseeable future. Time will tell. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter
