Five predictions about what might come next:
1. AI isn’t not over. [Did anyone actually say “AI is over” after the DeepSeek moment? (I did not. Is anyone saying that now? I am not.]
2. What might actually be over is the era of insanely high valuations - for generative AI — and exponentially increasing investments in data centers.
3. People will continue to use generative AI (now mostly via harnessed neurosymbolic models with tools and loops rather than the once dominant pure LLMs that are no longer popular).
4. New, more reliable architectures will eventually displace today’s AI, but it may take several years, or more.
5. A newer generation of AI will actually be worth a lot of money; this one was overrated and people will eventually see that in hindsight.
