Go playing by AlphaGo was in 2016, fake images by Nvidia was in 2018, GPT was in 2018.
It definitely didn’t start booming in 2020, but a few years before.
Each of these above were a surprise at how soon they were invented, earlier, experts were seeing such types of AI at least a decade off.—

I agree. The rapid advances in AI research and the ever-improving quality of AI applications began in the mid-to-late 2010s, although these applications only gradually became available to the general public and reported in the media beginning in the early 2020s.

Which one is the "Spring" and which one is the "boom"? If the Spring is generative AI, that may exclude AlphaGo. GPT is even later and more specific.

The following is a closed discussion of a

move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
AI spring →
AI boom – A minority of sources refer to the topic as an "AI spring"; most use the terminology "AI boom". 2 references in the article use spring, and 5 use boom. Additionally, see Google News hits for
boom and
spring; the vast majority of "spring" hits are false positives (referring to the season or last name spring), while there are a multitude of articles that use boom.
Frostly (

Or uppercase "spring" as
AI Spring, like in
Arab Spring. Although we don't capitalize the words for seasons ordinarily, this could be considered a proper name for a specific series of events and developments. —

Support move to AI boom. I have not heard the term "AI spring" anywhere. Some searching shows that reliable sources like
The New York Times and
The Economistonly use "AI boom".

Years
When did the AI boom start? The opening sentence was changed today, and the starting timeframe changed from the early 2020s to the mid-2010s. I’m wondering which timeframe should be included in the first sentence. –Gluonztalkcontribs 15:15, 22 December 2023 (UTC)reply
It is more in line with other parts of the article. The date can be narrowed down in the future if its scope becomes better defined.
Senorangel (
talk) 23:55, 23 December 2023 (UTC)reply
Where? Almost all of the article appears to be about 2020 and later. Only a brief part of the history section seems to cover any pre-2020 events. –Gluonztalkcontribs 00:24, 24 December 2023 (UTC)reply
Before 2020 there was not as much interest in creating an article like this, but high quality sources
[3][4][5][6] do exist.
Senorangel (
talk) 00:48, 24 December 2023 (UTC)reply
Ok. What do sources in general have to say in the way of the starting timeframe? –Gluonztalkcontribs 00:09, 25 December 2023 (UTC)reply
It might take historians some time to agree on a defined start time. They should be similar to what Google Books
[7] shows.
Senorangel (
talk) 00:55, 27 December 2023 (UTC)reply
That’s probably true. However, the Google Books Ngram Viewer excludes the early 2020s entirely, so I don’t think that can be the sole definitive source for a starting time. –Gluonztalkcontribs 16:54, 28 December 2023 (UTC)reply
If it shows up significantly around 2015 or 2016, that would be the starting point regardless of what follows right?
Senorangel (
talk) 02:01, 29 December 2023 (UTC)reply
Maybe, but if, for example, usage increased by one thousand times starting in 2020, then anything from before then might look like a tiny blip in the chart. –Gluonztalkcontribs 22:47, 29 December 2023 (UTC)reply
Starting time should not be pushed back even if popularity rises more later on.
Senorangel (
talk) 02:18, 30 December 2023 (UTC)reply
And this one:
Robin Hanson (December 2016), the economist Robert Hanson offering a contrarian position in December 2016 that the current AI boom is bound to bust. (Which didn’t happen, but he named the boom the boom.)
I would thus date it again to 2016 for the earliest mentions of a current AI boom.
Homei (
talk) 22:57, 7 January 2024 (UTC)reply
The removal of any starting time from the opening sentence, as has occurred, is probably a good solution for now. –Gluonztalkcontribs 13:43, 5 January 2024 (UTC)reply
Since the AI boom is supposed to be just the period of rapid AI progress in recent years (unlike the larger, longer-time
AI era of which it is part of), I think it is indeed important to state a rough time frame during which the AI boom started. If the exact start of this period is controversial (or at least not universally agreed on), it should be described as exactly that.--

Lead Section Refinement
The lead mentions philosophical and religious impacts, AI alignment and qualia, but the page does not later elaborate on these points beyond the initial statement and citations. Either these topics deserve expansion within the impacts or concerns sections with published writings or statements, or their mention is less integral to the topic and they can be moved as small mentions within their best associated sections instead of the article's intro.

Article needs more focus on "AI boom"
The article as it's currently written seems to focus more on the recent history and development of AI rather than specifically on the "AI boom." A more focused article on the AI boom would emphasize the growth, advancements, and implications of AI within a certain period, highlighting characteristic key events, breakthroughs, trends... supported by reliable sources. Many of the articles cited have no mention of an AI boom/spring and much of the information fails verification.
Mooonswimmer 01:55, 22 February 2024 (UTC)reply
This probably grew out of adding articles online, without a more defined structure in mind.
Senorangel (

Adding in Page as Upscaling/sharping pictures and videos from ultra lowest to ultra highest definition, and Dubbing for audio and video Hollywood like and much more in AI boom page.
