While if you consider that human achieves intelligence through a lot of supervision(homework and exams) too, I won't go directly to disclaim only unsupervised learning can be hailed as the king.
In fact, there is a discussion about the definition of unsupervised learning, because of the emergence of techniques like word2vec, where it essentially supervised learning but construct all its tasks from the data itself without any labelling.
The key word here is recognition. Better, faster, more efficient classifiers.
The algorithms for training a better representation of the features, not just features itself is a big deal, but it is, again, supervised learning.
The adversary approach, which gives additional feedback for better training, is mere sophisticated supervised learning.
Take one of the best papers survey (which is an emergent new genre in hipster's blogs) and one will see that there is nothing fundamentally new, apart from sophistication and additional feedback.
