> artificial intelligence is losing hype. among which audience? is the hype necessary for further development? we attained much, if not all, of the recent achievements without hype. if anything, i'm strongly in favor of ai losing all the hype so that our researchers can focus on what's necessary, not what will win the loudest applause from so fickle a crowd. i'd be worried if ai was attracting less researchers than, say, two or three years ago. that doesn't seem to be the case.
