I don't think your post makes any sense. It's on AskHN and you don't have a question. Also... - How did you define and measure progress? - How did you measure the number of people working in the field? - If true, why would any of this be a problem? - Why does a field need to constantly progress? For example, you could say that there's been even less progress in linear regression or random forest methods over the past five years - this doesn't take away from their usefulness in certain applications. - Why would the assumed slow rate of progress mean that DL needs to be replaced? - If you find more suitable solutions, you're always free to implement them in place of DL.
