    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter It's been a pattern in AI research since the 70s. Sure, the current boom is unprecedented, but that doesn't mean there won't be a relative bust. AI winter doesn't mean chatgpt will disappear. It just means research funding may get significantly scaled back of the hundred billion dollar investments of today don't generate trillion dollar returns

        After spending more time researching than I really should have done I found the quote. https://x.com/pmddomingos/status/1728628326968021100 https://x.com/pmddomingos/status/1728628326968021100 He was expressing doubt that there is an AI winter near. He's more of the: >Geoffrey Hinton, dubbed the 'Godfather of AI,' warns technology will be smarter than humans in five years" school of thought. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-12610845/geoffrey-hinton-godfather-ai-warns-smarter-humans.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-12610845/geo...
