Well said, I would agree that we're just to the left of the peak but that applies more to the areas adjacent to the problems where deep learning has shown some real value.

I remember the previous AI peaks in the 80s and 90s as well the neural net and fuzzy logic euphorias. The problem back then was that the results were not that exciting. Now we have some really impressive applications searching vast datasets and recognizing useful features. However, I notice everyone is trying to apply the same algorithms to problems not well suited for that type of approach.
