On a wider front, I expect machine learning as a whole will see its funding go down the shitter once the AI bubble bursts - useful ML applications are losing funding in favour of magical chatbots, and the stench of AI is definitely wafting all over it as well.
For an off-the-cuff prediction, I expect the number of AI/ML researchers to steeply drop in the coming years, from funding for AI/ML drying up post bubble, and from researchers viewing the field as too tainted to touch.
oh absolutely. there's a lot of mathematicians who have discovered there's fucking buckets of money right now, and it's all gonna dry up. hope they're socking it away while they can.
