> create new data in it through approximations and heuristics defined in the algorithm I guess the difference is where the algorithm gets it's input data from. Just sensor data or does it draw from a neural network that memorized a bunch of images / data store of images too. You can argue what's the difference between this and Huawei replacing the image of the moon when their phone detects it with a hi-res one it has in storage - it's an "algorithm" too. Are you using just the data provided to draw conclusions? Or do you include extra data from elsewhere to get your conclusions?
