See the article in the New Yorker

  http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2006/10/16/061016fa_fact6

about a neural network that has better-than-human performance in
predicting income of movies based on plot.

To me, it seems like cheating to allow a very large neural network as
a proposed solution to  an AI-complete problem.
