Indeed, DL-based AI is likely to continuue - rightfully so - for non-safety critical domains (translation, games, ...) It's crazy that few people notice that real world applications with safety issues (where 99.9% accuracy is a joke) - ex: self driving vehicles - require much more that what DL has to offer. The AI community's sloppiness when it comes to safety and robustness engineering will lead to the some serious problems (when it comes to real-world industrial applications). But yeah there will still be jobs for people playing around.
But 10 years is a long time in internet years. I would not be at all surprised if there's another word2vec (or two) arose before then to displace the tectonic plates yet again.
