Yes, there /are/ some neural networks in use.  In almost every case,
neural network systems are simulated on classical computers - the
structures and algorithms are used for (as you say) pattern recognition
systems such as optical character recognition software.  There have been
a number of "hardware" neural network systems made, but few have made it
out of laboratories.

In other works, neural networks did not come close to "living up to the
hype", but are still of interest in niche areas and in research.  I
believe the same will happen with quantum computing.
