The First Rule of Machine Learning: Start Without Machine Learning

1. 1Start by defining the problem you want to solve without using machine learning
2. 2Gather and analyze data to understand the problem's complexity
3. 3Develop a simple, non-ML solution to the problem
4. 4Test and refine your non-ML solution
5. 5Only then, consider applying machine learning techniques to improve your solution

Data scientists and machine learning engineers can benefit from this approach, as it helps them understand the problem domain better and build more effective solutions

💡 Solving problems without machine learning first helps build a strong foundation and ensures you're using ML to augment, not replace, human understanding
