AlbertoRomGar··on Google is winning on every AI front
I am the author of the article. It was there since the beginning, just behind the paywall, which I removed due to the amount of interest the topic was receiving.

Machine learning and deep learning will slowly lose their status until they get relegated to what they truly are; fancy statistical techniques.
