I haven't read the article or paper yet, but if the gist I'm getting from the comments is correct, Schmidhuber is generally correct about industry having horrible citation practices. I even see it at a small scale at work. People often fail or forget to mention the others that helped them generate their ideas. I would not be at all surprised if this behavior extended to research papers published by people in industry as opposed to academia. Good citation practice simply does not exist in industry. We're lucky in any of the thousand blog posts that reimplement some idea that was cranked out ages ago in academic circles are even aware of the original effort, let alone cite it. Citations are few and far between in industry literature generally. Obviously there are exceptions and this just my personal observation, I haven't done or found any kind of meta literary study illustrating such.
