Thank you, good clarification, sorry if I made it sound I was dog-piling on Ng. Andrew Ng works harder at explaining ML in a non-technical way than anyone else I can think of, and the 1-second rule came out of that genuine desire to educate. I've been in the exact same boat: a senior executive who "used to code" trying to get me to explain to him in simple terms what kind of problems ML could solve; I sort of fumbled through it by mentioning the 1 second rule and giving some concrete examples. It's just absurdly hard to put it in non-technical terms.
