Im really hoping that when this hype cycle ends and the next AI winter starts that all the generative stuff gets culled but we still see good work and tech using all the other advances (that would be described as “mere” deep learning).
Document embedding from transformers are great and fit into existing search paradigms.
Computer vision and image segmentation is at a level I thought impossible 10 years ago.
Text to speech that sounds natural? I might actually use Siri and Alexa! (Ok, that one might be considered “generative”)
The research never ended. AI money was flooding in, but mostly going directly to Nvidia. If that cash flow turns off there will still be research happening because it was mostly unaffected in the first place.
