Science seems to have abandoned cause and effect. That needs to change.

"AI is currently split. First, there are those who are intoxicated by the success of machine learning and deep learning and neural nets. They don’t understand what I’m talking about. They want to continue to fit curves. But when you talk to people who have done any work in AI outside statistical learning, they get it immediately. I have read several papers written in the past two months about the limitations of machine learning." Judea Pearl

I have been following Judea Pearl's work and I am excited to finally see him publish a book on this topic. I have been observing these issues at the lower end of machine learning for years now and it is amazing to see someone at the very top confirm them in this book.

This summer, I will be starting a research reading group as well as a corporate entity to help change this outdated status quo. If you want to be involved, let me know. The work will focus on three frontiers: public research, pro bono advice and private consulting.
