Rule number one: define your terms as you introduce them. On and on about ML. But what is it?

I had to search to see it was Machine Learning.

How hard is it to define it the first time you use it?

I can bet lots of people were scratching their heads but didn’t bother to look it up or continue reading...

Genuinely curious, did you think "ML" stood for anything else? My day to day work is not machine learning but if I ever see ML, "machine learning" is the first thing I think of.

There is also the ML family of programming languages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ML_(programming_language)

Thanks for flagging! Fixed.
