đ Stanford's 100-year AI study: the scaling era is running out of road
Stanford's One Hundred Year Study on AI (AI100) published its third report, "AI Goes Mainstream," written by a 12-person panel chaired by Oxford's Michael Wooldridge and including Peter Norvig. It says piling on compute and data drove the past five years of progress but is now short of high-quality data and too costly at the frontier, so the next phase will lean on smarter algorithms, smaller models and more reasoning time. It also warns that AI investment has surpassed earlier booms while "AI is not yet paying its way" in economic data.
â A major academic panel saying "bigger" is no longer enough adds weight to doubts about trillion-dollar AI spending plans.
