Reply to comment by he_who_floats_amogus in [D] Would you consider the computer program Theo Jansen used to design the Strandbeest (beach walking mechanisms) to be Machine Learning? by lavaboosted

I guess my question would be when do you know that what you have is a representative knowledge model rather than just a simple function? Another question that might help clear it up for me is - what would have to change in order for the strandbeest program to be considered machine learning?
