Freeman argues that decision theory and resource-allocation frameworks are categorically different from deep learning and should not be dismissed by the 'Bitter Lesson' paradigm. He critiques the conflation of decision-theoretic methods with hand-crafted symbolic AI, noting that decision theory addresses 'what to do' under uncertainty, not pattern recognition.
