AI winter is here. Almost.

More like AI fall - in its current state it's still gonna provide some value.

Didn't the previous AI winters too? I mean during the last AI winter we got text-to-speech and OCR software, and probably other stuff I'm not remembering.

I mean, so did most of the previous AI bubbles; OCR was useful, expert systems weren't totally useless, speech recognition was somewhat useful, and so on. I think that mini one that abruptly ended with Microsoft Tay might be the only one that was a total washout (though you could claim that it was the start of the current one rather than truly separate, I suppose).

Is there any timeline on AI winters and if each winter gets shorter and shorter as time increases?

AGI=lim(x->0)AIHype(x)

It's very strange this got so few upvotes. The scoop by The Information a few days ago, which came to similar conclusions, was also ignored on HN. This is arguably rather big news.
