That is really a good writeup, especially for providing background material for new people in the field (I have been in this field since 1982, experienced AI winters and boom times).
One thing missing in the article is the exponential growth rate of progress. The rate of progress is something I try to explain to non-tech friends. I love seeing difficult problems solved and then simply become new engineering tools to build with.
Transformer models like GPT-3 and Co-Pilot have so quickly transformed my work flow and especially GPT-3 has transformed things that I can do.
