Sutton was talking about progress in AI overall, whereas Pinhasi (OP) is talking about building one model for production right now. Of course adding some hand-coded knowledge is essential for the latter, but it has not provided much long-term progress. (Even CNNs and group-convolutional NNs, which seek to encode invariants to increase efficiency while still doing almost only learning, seem to be on the way out)
