Abstract: We show that for acylindrically hyperbolic groups $Gamma$ (with no nontrivial finite normal subgroups) and arbitrary unitary representation $ho$ of $Gamma$ in a (nonzero) uniformly convex Banach space the vector space $H_b^2(Gamma;ho)$ is infinite dimensional. The result was known for the regular representations on $el{l}^p(Gamma)$ with $1<p<infty$ by a different argument. But our result is new even for a non-abelian free group in this great generality for representations, and also the case for acylindrically hyperbolic groups follows as an application.
