If $Y$ at that point is (statistically and practically) significantly better than our current operating point, and that point is deemed acceptable, we update the system parameters to this better value. Crucially, it takes into account the uncertainty inherent in our experiments. Why experiment with several parameters concurrently?

All you need to know for now is that machine learning uses statistical techniques to give computer systems the ability to “learn” by being trained on existing data. Machine learning adds uncertainty. Underneath this uncertainty lies further uncertainty in the development process itself.

These circumstances have induced uncertainty across our entire business value chain,” says Venkat Gopalan, chief digital, data and technology officer, Belcorp. “As He points to cost savings from the reduction in laboratory tests, formulations, external software licenses, and the optimization of activities.

LLMs like ChatGPT are trained on massive amounts of text data, allowing them to recognize patterns and statistical relationships within language. The AGI would need to handle uncertainty and make decisions with incomplete information. NLP techniques help them parse the nuances of human language, including grammar, syntax and context.

For example, imagine a fantasy football site is considering displaying advanced player statistics. A ramp-up strategy may mitigate the risk of upsetting the site’s loyal users who perhaps have strong preferences for the current statistics that are shown. One reason to do ramp-up is to mitigate the risk of never before seen arms.

Sometimes, we escape the clutches of this sub optimal existence and do pick good metrics or engage in simple A/B testing. You're choosing only one metric because you want to optimize it. Remember that the raw number is not the only important part, we would also measure statistical significance. But it is not routine.

by MICHAEL FORTE Large-scale live experimentation is a big part of online product development. This means a small and growing product has to use experimentation differently and very carefully. This blog post is about experimentation in this regime. But these are not usually amenable to A/B experimentation.
