I used to think that given enough time, more people would also learn that there are no substantial differences between supervised and unsupervised learning. However, I have come to believe that this might not happen any time soon. The supposed difference between supervised and unsupervised can be easily explained (label / no label -- duh?!). It is much harder to explain, why that distinction is ultimately a mirage. Couple this with a million low quality blog posts on SEO steroids by data grand wizards and machine learning architects, I doubt that even a good text book jointly written by Bengio, Hinton, and LeCun would convince the ML hype train otherwise. But there is always hope!
