No idea why this was downvoted; I find this to be an accurate description. The difference between stats and ML is mostly one of terminology and perspective. I studied math in college and grad school, and there were several moments in Andrew Ng's online lectures where I thought "oh, I know this, but we didn't call it that, and I had no idea it was considered ML."
