I'm not sure I would create the learning model exactly the way it is done here, but I appreciate the strategy and I think it's founded in some good thinking about how cognition occurs. Where I begin to drift apart from the authors is in steps four and five where despite pledging to avoid "the confusing backdrop of countless learning and developmental theories," they hypothesize 'layered representations' and 'adaptive exploration'. Also, I wish they had managed to avoid collapsing completely into stereotype, but no, they had to outline the story of "a data scientist who approaches dating like a machine learning problem, as he meets Elena, an environmental scientist who challenges all his algorithmic assumptions."
