The linked site says nothing about neural networks.

"we've also started to see what it might be like for computers to be [creative], to [dream], and to [experience the world]."

All three of those links are about neural networks.

So you've turned "what it might be like" with a couple examples of mild AI-ish tasks that caught the public's attention this year into "the answer"?

The site straight up says "deep learning." Which is neural networks.

There's a paragraph basically saying "there's been some cool stuff happening (you may have even heard about) in this particular field". Extrapolating that to the entire organization thinking that "neural networks are the answer to AI" as OP claimed is silly.

Of the researchers they hired (some of them don't appear to be active researchers right now, like Trevor Blackwell), they're all are deep learning researchers...
