The Future Of Machine Learning: Is Winter Coming? Build5Nines

The short answer to this question is quite easy: it is practically impossible to predict the future of machine learning; one of the most dynamic, complex, and challenging fields mankind has ever created! The history of Machine Learning is tightly linked to the history of Artificial Intelligence and teaches us that its evolution was marked by ups and downs, periods of high interest and hype followed (usually in a rather unexpected way) by periods of "oblivion" – the so-called "AI winters". While its future is impossible to be accurately predicted, most of the trends and developments that have a serious impact on Machine Learning today can be identified and analyzed. One might even dare to assume these trends and developments will play a major role in shaping its future. For me, the best way to describe the future of Machine Learning is to use some of Sci-Fi cinematography's most famous words: "Clouded this boy's future is".
