Famed roboticist Rodney Brooks, co-founder of iRobot, has issued a warning about the future of AI, suggesting that the industry is following a cyclic pattern of hype followed by stagnation, with the next breakthrough likely to be delayed for years.
Brooks has a history of making accurate predictions, having previously forecasted the rise of large language models like ChatGPT, which has seen widespread adoption and significant investment in the tech industry.
Despite the skepticism about the near-term prospects for advanced AI, Brooks still sees potential in the industry, emphasizing that significant technological advancements take time and commitment from financial backers.
