Google's BERT changing the NLP Landscape

We write a lot about open problems in Natural Language Processing. We complain a lot when working on NLP projects. We pick on inaccuracies and blatant errors of different models. But what we need to admit is that NLP has already changed and new models have solved the problems that may still linger in our memory. One of such drastic developments is the launch of Google's Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers, or BERT model -- the model that is called the best NLP model ever based on its superior performance over a wide variety of tasks.
