In this paper we look at recent advances in artificial intelligence. Decades in the making, a confluence of several factors in the past few years has culminated in a string of breakthroughs in many longstanding research challenges. A number of problems that were considered too challenging just a few years ago can now be solved convincingly by deep neural networks. Although deep learning appears to be reducing the algorithmic problem solving to a matter of data collection and labeling, we believe that many insights learned from ‘pre-Deep Learning’ works still apply and will be more valuable than ever in guiding the design of novel neural network architectures.
