On Machine Learning

If you take a step back and think about what machine learning is, it is at its core is data. We want to leverage the data to do hard work for us; which is learning what data is (unsupervised learning) or why it is learning the things they learn(feature selection) or how it is learning the things they learn(optimization).

f I make an analogy with software programming, we put algorithms and data from input, output would become the program that we intended to write yet without explicitly writing it.
