A bit sad that all this cool work in cogsci pretty much died out.

Not sure it did... Tenenbaum himself has been carrying that torch pretty well

Maybe. But I don't get the impression that more recent cogsci work including Tenenbaum's is quite as influential within ML as that of Rosenblatt, Hinton and Elman.
-
My optimistic take: there's a technological time lag between when the models are proposed to model cogsci experiments and when they can be implemented at scale. Maybe when we have bigger computers and fancier inference algorithms everyone will use hierarchical Bayesian models.

Pretty sure Hinton wasn't "believed" and was very alone before Deep Networks took off.
-
By "pretty sure" I'm being facetious — I mean "I am 100% sure".

Also you're saying he's not influential (Josh) but he's a keynote at the biggest ML conference.

No, I said "not quite as influential"
