> Prior to Deep Learning, Machine Learning community don't really associated themselves with Artificial Intelligence very often. The AI at the time, if I recall correctly, related more to 70s symbolism and heuristic search approach. It's more complicated than that. First, the AI community had periodic tendencies that oscillated between philosophies and approaches. Every once in a while, someone would make a big contribution, that approach would bloom, then progress would slow for a number of years. There were previous periods where ANNs and other statistical methods were in vogue. Second, it depends on what you define as the AI community and the ML community. For example, speech recognition people have been using Hidden Markov Models for years, which is a statistical/learning method. Is that AI? Is that ML?
