I know people were solving CAPTCHAS with neural nets (with PHP no less!) back in 2009.

You could definitely do better than we do here - this was just a test of how well these general-purpose systems are out-of-the-box

Indeed, captcha vs captcha bot solvers has been an ongoing war for a long time. Considering all the cybercrime and ubiquitous online fraud today, it's pretty impressive that captchas have held the line as long as they have.
