>I have no idea what this is saying. It sounds like you're shitting on statistics all of a sudden, which is weird, given that you seemed to favor mathematicians in the first part. Mathematicians are specialized in problem solving, and as humans, their ability to predict and analyze data makes them more reliable developing models than a statistical equation. They have quite more tools than statistics one. Someway, it is like if using the acronym AI to define statistical algorithms leads to a false sense of greater reliability than such human review, or even that it is not needed a deep human review. ML statistics takes algorithms out of the oven long before mathematicians does, at the expense of a big in accuracy difference. The problem I think is people may take important decisions based in the result of such statistical algorithms without questioning
