Conventional probability theory, as commonly applied, seems to have some major blind spots. Using deep learning, Yann LeCun's team was able to find uniquely different sets of points that had the same statistical properties. They are calling into question the approach of throwing probability theory at every and any problem. Nonlinear systems in particular often exhibit behavior that is not easy to grasp via probability theory.
