As an older engineer currently having fun digging into ML: yep, a well thought-out set of good-ol business rules can do a lot of what teams are applying ML to these days.
Nothing wrong with learning new things, though. I can get behind that. It's important to stay intellectually honest, however.
On the other hand, research efforts on vision, language and autonomous systems are genuinely pushing boundaries.
- ghaff 8y agoSupervised learning using a variety of different neural network pipelines is doing some genuinely impressive things from a business perspective. But not much beyond that at this point (again, from a business perspective).
- rhizome 8y agoBusiness rules are concrete and have people and names attached to them. ML allows the robot to take all the blame.
