Econometrics Is The Original Data Science

I remember beginning my first online course in machine learning and realising that I already knew most of it. I'm going to preface this article by saying that I'm a trained and journal published econometrician -- I'm biased. Do you know who is also biased? Joshua Angrist -- a 2021 Nobel Prize winner whose video I discovered saying the same thing while researching for this video. If you're reading this, I'm assuming you have some interest in data science- there's a lot you can learn from Econometrics, so buckle up and listen in.
