[SHARE] - Deep Learning giống như bong bóng sắp nổ?

Xem trả lời của Andrew Ng - giáo sư hàng đầu về lĩnh vực này - trên quora cho câu hỏi: When will the deep learning bubble burst?

Các lợi ích của deep learning là không thể chối cãi - và việc (xem xét) ứng dụng deep learning trong nhiều lĩnh vực cần được nghiên cứu. Tuy nhiên, deep learning không phải là thuốc trị bá bệnh.

There was also a lot of hype about electricity about 100 years ago. That particular bubble still hasn’t burst yet and we find electricity pretty useful!

More seriously, because deep learning is already creating tons of value—it’s used in web search, advertising, speech recognition, recommender systems, and many more—it is clearly here to stay. Deep learning, plus more broadly other AI tools (graphical models, planning, KR, etc.), now has a clear path to transforming industry after industry. Its impact will be felt well beyond the tech world.

Nonetheless, I think outside the core technical community, there are some overinflated expectations about “sentient AI”; I’ve also spoken with CEOs that seemed to think AI could be panacea to all their technical problems. So there is some unnecessary froth around deep learning, and I hope these smaller bubbles will burst—the sooner the better—before they have time to grow bigger.
