“They point out that we never know for sure which hypothesis is the true one, and so we shouldn’t just pick one hypothesis, like a value of 0.7 for the probability of heads; rather, we should compute the posterior probability… — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image
“For a Bayesian, in fact, there is no such thing as the truth; you have a prior distribution over hypotheses, after seeing the data it becomes the posterior distribution, as given by Bayes’ theorem, and that’s all.” — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image

“Bias is a learner’s tendency to consistently learn the same wrong thing.” — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image
“The Industrial Revolution automated manual work and the Information Revolution did the same for mental work, but machine learning automates automation itself.” — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image
“All knowledge—past, present, and future—can be derived from data by a single, universal learning algorithm.” — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image
“As so often happens in computer science, we’re willing to sacrifice efficiency for generality.” — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image
“Evolution is the ultimate example of how much a simple learning algorithm can achieve given enough data.” — Pedro Domingos Copy Share Image
