I agree that NLP is no less AI than vision. What I wanted to point out in my post (I am the author) is that too many smart computer vision researchers don't view vision as AI at all. Somehow many people's research program is centered around the assumption/desire that a pure image classification approach will solve vision.

Computer Vision is in fact (according to Shapiro[1]) AI-complete, meaning that the solving this problems is equivalent to solving the central artificial intelligence problem. It is in my opinion one of the hardest problems to solve that is why Researchers have to focus on a tiny specific topic in computer vision. 1. http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/~shapiro/Papers/ai.pdf

"... solving this problems[sic] is equivalent to solving the central artificial intelligence problem"

And that would be, precisely, what?

Making a machine "think" the way humans do.
