AI Neural Nets Winter (jan 5, 1969 – jan 1, 1985)
Description:
Government agencies funding AI research took Minsky and Papert paper seriously. Fundingfor neural net research dried up, leading to a neural net winter that didn’t
abate until the publishing of the Parallel Distributing Processing volumes in
the mid 1980s (McClelland, Rumelhart, and the PDP Research Group 1986;
Rumelhart, McClelland, and the PDP Research Group 1986).
