"We've changed the name of our box from *program* to *model*. This is to follow modern terminology and to reflect that the *model* is a special kind of program: it's one that can do *many different things*, depending on the *weights*. It can be implemented in many different ways. For instance, in Samuel's checkers program, different values of the weights would result in different checkers-playing strategies. \n",

"(By the way, what Samuel called \"weights\" are most generally refered to as model *parameters* these days, in case you have encountered that term. The term *weights* is reserved for a particular type of model parameter.)\n",

"Next, Samuel said we need an *automatic means of testing the effectiveness of any current weight assignment in terms of actual performance*. In the case of his checkers program, the \"actual performance\" of a model would be how well it plays. And you could automatically test the performance of two models by setting them to play against each other, and seeing which one usually wins.\n",
