Last night's Oscar winners were completely in line with the predictions announced on March 1 by BigML, the machine learning company where I am a strategic advisor. And when I say "in line" I really mean that: strike; 100% on the nail, in one category after another. The candidates for each and every one of the six major categories Big ML's algorithm picked as favorites (best film, best director, best actor, best actress, best supporting actor and best secondary actress) all came in. There was 28,125 combinations, which means a 0.00003556 probability of guessing them all by chance. And such algorithm, once correctly fed with data and fine tuned, was able to predict the voting intention of the more than 7,000 members of the Academy.

The "Harry Potter" star showed off a tattoo that read "Times Up" on her arm -- clearly missing the apostrophe for the organization Time's Up. It was not immediately clear if the tattoo was real. People reported the tattoo could be be temporary. The Brown University graduate has been an outspoken proponent of the Time's Up movement, which began after bombshell exposés revealed decades of alleged sexual misconduct by Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

A typical impact evaluation works with a sample S to give them a treatment Treat, and is interested in estimating something like: Y(i,t) b(i,t)*Treat(i,t) D'X(i,t) for units i in the sample S We can think of machine learning and artificial intelligence as possibly affecting every term in this expression:
