Me: So basically what AI is, is they take statistical analysis of raw data, then perform statistical analysis on those results, and so on, adding more statistics layer by layer.

My wife: So, like a doberge cake?

Me: Yes, exactly! In fact if you look at the diagram of a neural net, that's exactly what it looks like.

In our household, AI is officially "the Doberge Cake of Statistics". It really sticks in my wife's mind because she loves doberge cake, but hates statistics.
