大数据的核心就是预测。它通常被视为人工智能的一部分，或者更确切地说，被视为一种
机器学习。但是这种定义是有误导性的。大数据不是要教机器像人一样思考。相反，它是把数学算法运用到海量的数据上来预测事情发生的可能性。(The heart of big data is prediction. It is usually regarded as part of artificial intelligence, or rather, considered as a kind of artificial intelligence



Machine learning. But this definition is misleading. Big data is not about teaching machines to think like people. Instead, it uses mathematical algorithms to predict the likelihood of events by using huge amounts of data.)
