Personally, I prefer Brion Gysin’s versified lines about Kold Karma:
“In the beginning / was the Word— / been in You / for a too long time /
I rub out the word . . ."

We analyzed 16,625 papers to figure out where AI is headed next
While AI and deep learning specifically have been top of mind recently, the sudden rise and fall of different techniques in AI research have characterized AI research for a long time. To visualize this trend, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Technology Review analyzed this research.
They found that in the 1990’s and 2000’s, machine learning techniques, including deep learning, Bayesian networks, support vector machines, and evolutionary algorithms, were researched fairly equally until a breakthrough in 2012 that led to increased research in neural networks and deep learning.
Currently, reinforcement learning is one of the most researched topics, but it is difficult to predict what will come next – whether an older technique will regain favour or whether the field will create an entirely new paradigm.

'I HAVE BEEN WILD WITH RAGE, SADNESS AND SELF-HATRED. NOW, SUDDENLY, IT MAKES SENSE'
