    Have you seen any comparisons to the previous AI bubbles and winters?

      AFAIK none of the previous AI bubbles really had much investment. There was hype, but it was hype within the computer science, or cognitive science fields. But, maybe there’s a financial bubble bit that I’m missing.

        I don’t know about how they compare in scale, but corpos were spending billions on business AI solutions, and there were specialised technologies that died when the bubble burst.
