A decade before the "AI winter", going by this NYT article on single layer perceptrons, the AI craze was in full swing.  AI and Machine Learning have made some significant progress in this last decade, but it's always worth remembering how the marketing of AI will always be way ahead of the true capacity of AI. While too much undue excitement can hurt a research field at times, notice that some of the predictions about AI agents (recognizing people/faces, language translation) have already become reality today.
