Machine learning with neural networks of many layers, each learning more abstract features than the last. Its breakthrough came in 2012, when AlexNet won the ImageNet image-recognition contest.
And then in 2012 there was Ilya, Alex and Geoff did ImageNet, and we just really did not see that coming. We'd been focused on things like warming up with generative modeling before proceeding to supervised training.
