Powered flight offers a cautionary tale for AI. The first confirmed powered flight was in 1903. For the next 60 years, someone broke the airspeed record almost every year. The current record was set in 1976. Nobody has broken that record for 48 years. There are concerns that the state of AI will show a similar pattern, with rapid improvements followed by a plateau.
