Because the new wave don't know how to do this. Deep Learning as AI was sold as "statistics in place of physics" -- ie., no need to understand reality (the target domain), simply brute force it. The peddlers of such a message were bamboozled by early successes and lacked sufficient experience of empirical science to realise this was never going to work. No NN will discover the universal law of gravitation from any dataset not collected on the basis of knowing this universal law. With 'statistics as theory' there can never be new theory, as a new theory is a precondition of a new dataset.
