Machine learning – perhaps one of the more prominent buzzwords of recent times, and typically coupled with data science. In the simplest terms, machine learning is the way that computers “learn” and make predictions based on the data that we feed it (quite cannibalistic when put that way).  The algorithms used are expertly designed to make purely data-driven decisions and predictions. Anyone who is the least bit interested in this topic has likely heard the phrase “Correlation doesn’t always mean causation”. What this machine learning algorithm aims to do is bring these two as close together as possible. Let’s take
