> I doubt you'll get that, because nobody thinks that progress in machine learning will stop.
Robin Hansen is notoriously skeptical about the possibility that Deep Learning can make real gains. He for some reason thinks brain emulation is more likely to make large progress in AI.
>An AI winter doesn't mean that progress stops.
It doesn't completely stop, but progress would be at a snails pace.
> The hype then dies down. Research continues, though, until enough progress is made that machine learning starts to produce results that excite the public again, and the cycle goes into another hype phase.
I think we as a community may need to take a good long look at the hype cycle theory and be skeptical it has any merit.
