I guess one was at the start, we felt like, well, AI, this is part of computer science and computer science is about algorithms.

So we're going to show you a bunch of cool algorithms.
So we're going to show you a bunch of cool algorithms.
And we did that.
And we did that.
And then in the second edition, I think we felt more like, okay, you still got to know all the cool algorithms, but if you had a choice, you're probably better off getting better data rather than getting better algorithms.
And then in the second edition, I think we felt more like, okay, you still got to know all the cool algorithms, but if you had a choice, you're probably better off getting better data rather than getting better algorithms.
So we're going to focus a lot more on what the data is.

And that continued to be more true in the third edition.

And now I feel like, okay, now we've got plenty of data, we've got plenty of algorithms, you still have to know about them.

But really the key to future progress is neither of those.
