guslThe Swedish word for Computer Science is "datavetenskap" (data(?)-science).
Generally speaking, Computer Science is known as the "science of information". The "science of data" is obviously Statistics. "data" and "information" are different views of the same thing.
Therefore, when talking to laypeople, instead of trying to explain what "Machine Learning" is, I should describe myself as a "Data Scientist".
