I don't know about that. Everything with deep learning seems to attract so much hype that it's hard to measure the actual progress without being a researcher.

On the other hand, "classic" AI projects seem to get no recognition, even when they deliver astounding results.

For example, how many people here heard about MIT's Genesis project?

If you don't know your past, everything seems like progress.
