for similar reasons, let's do away with the phrase "machine learning."

the machine isn't learning, it's regurgitating with human intervention to make it regurgitate "the right content." the machine is not sufficiently self-referential, self-directed, nor autonomous enough to "learn" anything. it's accessing a weighted file system with human help to determine those ratings.

though...i suppose people could argue that it learns like a pet. i would ask: is it a skinnerian pet?
