I very sadly don't see it going anywhere because of how much money has been invested by big tech corporations such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft.
Reason they're willing to put so much money into these corporations is because they're being built on their cloud infrastructure, which the different AI companies pay for. So either way, they end up getting more money and becoming more influential, even if the AI hype eventually dies out.
AI is here to stay but I can't wait to see it get past the point where every app has to have their own AI shoehorned in regardless of what the app is. Sick of it.

Don't forget "THE CLOUD" and "IoT"
The cloud was the dumbest hype because it changed nothing. Network services were now named cloud services, that was it.
We also got:
- cyber: the realisation that the internet exists but 20 years too late
- big data: companies snorkeling your data for targeted advertising and government surveillance
- blockchain: safe ways to pay your dealer and investment scams
- VR: the weirdest sort of corporate meetings and some cool game experiments
IOT seems kinda ok in that regard. Connect your microcontrollers to the internet to allow some extra coordination.

If anything survives it will be the deepening of the attitude that copying or imitating anything is "stealing".

VR and AR will get a second run once the UX is improved and power to run it becomes small and cheap enough. Quantum computing is around the corner.
