Gartner's Hype Cycle tracks emerging information technologies in their journey towards mainstream adoption. It is designed to help companies tell hype from viable business opportunity, and give an idea when that value may be realized. This year, artificial intelligence is one of the year's three megatrends in the 2017 Hype Cycle. Gartner is calling this class of AI technologies "AI Everywhere". Unsurprisingly, many of the technologies are already at the "Peak of Inflated Expectations". Machine learning and deep learning are at peak hype, and predicted to be 2-5 years away from mainstream adoption. Cognitive computing is also at peak hype, but up to 10 years away, while artificial general intelligence (AI with the'intelligence' of an average human being) is 10 years away and in early innovation phase. Commenting on the Cycle, Gartner research director Mike J. Walker predicts that AI technologies will be the most disruptive class of technologies in driving digital business forwards during the next 10 years.
