For what type of problems would this be useful for? Leetcode style problems have deterministic conditions, why use ML to solve that class of problems?

It's useful to approach these as toy problems. It's much easier to test and understand what's going on with a simple problem before applying to complex problems.

As an example, being able to model XOR with machine learning is a common intro exercise, since it shows the limitations of basic methods and the necessity for non-linear models. Obviously in real life you would just use XOR itself.
