May be Ml is an empirical subject more than a theoretical subject. It is more biology than physics. More astronomy ... even is the subject is created does not meant it follows rules.

After all if intelligence comes out artificially, I hope it does not have rule.

Great point ML takes much of its inspiration from simulating brains. Therefore studying such artificial brains is much like studying biology and thus to a large degree empirical I would assume.
