The foundational idea is that the sun-obscuring aerosols fossil fuel consumption puts into the atmosphere would clear relatively quickly, but long-lived greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide would persist and create a net warming. Climate change mitigation does not come at the expense of air pollution reductions.

Today's neural networks also learn parameter values, but those parameters are part of such flexible computer models that—if they are big enough—they become universal function approximators, meaning they can fit any type of data. Later systems incorporated learning to set their adjustable parameters, but these were usually few in number.
