Expert systems aren't a machine learning approach even if they're an AI approach.
- holowoodman 1y agoThe original article is about AI. Then about machine learning. Then about AI... The author doesn't seem to make up his mind about it. Or the article is AI-generated slop maybe.
- wasabi991011 1y agoYes, but the Bitter Lesson is about AI, not ML.
- rhet0rica 1y agoExactly. The expert system era was the first victim of the Bitter Lesson, as it was blown away when backpropagation was figured out at the end of the eighties. An author familiar with the history of AI would have mentioned this instead of glossing it over as "not a learning model"—dismissing a problem-solving technique because it doesn't use regression serves no constructive purpose.
