I liked this statement "For instance, during the coronavirus pandemic, many machine learning systems began to fail because they had been trained on statistical regularities instead of causal relations. As life patterns changed, the accuracy of the models dropped."
Why machine learning struggles with causality
Machine learning systems thrive on finding and exploiting statistical regularities. This is why they can’t do causal reasoning.
