Is baseball really a notable enough example of an application of statistical learning theory that it deserves to be in the lead paragraph? -- ''[[User:Pingumeister|Pingumeister]]''<sup>([[User talk:Pingumeister|talk]])</sup> 13:15, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
:No, it does certainly not. Moreover, the cited paper "Gagan Sidhu, Brian Caffo. Exploiting pitcher decision-making using Reinforcement Learning. Annals of Applied Statistics" is about '''reinforcement learning''' which is not part of statistical learning, so it has nothing to do with this article. I have removed it from the lead, but an author keeps putting it back without explanations.

== Nice Introduction ==
 
Kudos to the person who wrote the introduction - it really is an "introduction" in every sense of the word! Most articles in "machine learning" seem to assume the reader is already familiar with the concepts, which makes them hard to read. And I imagine there's more interest on the topic given the success of ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot, so if more articles could be edited to start with a good introduction such as the one in this article, I believe it would greatly help bring machine learning to a wider audience! <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Kenileb|Kenileb]] ([[User talk:Kenileb#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Kenileb|contribs]]) 22:03, 28 November 2023 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
