Paraphrased from the article: AutoML tables takes a generic table and predicts can predict a columns value (for an unseen partial row, I assume). Their product page emphasises how easy it is: for developers with limited machine learning experience. What are the consequences of using such structured data predictions devoid of interpretation or quantified uncertainty? Presumably such predictions could be from a set of discrete values, how is that smoothed? What is the result of providing definite results in the absence of intention?
