    In computer science (at least before hype took over) this is actually a type of machine learning called an expert system.

      No, it’s not.

      What the philosoraptor is saying is that literally any computer program is machine learning, which is untrue.

      An expert system is a system designed to simulate an expert. It’s something you would seek advice from in some way. They’re used in medical diagnoses and stock market trading, for example.

        Expert systems are a series of if statements by definition, a rule engine. I was going off of “a network of ifs” but I get what you mean.
