The same way that AI/ML spam filters work: thumbs up or thumbs down. If the AI/ML has access to a large # of Maxima users, then it can get a bit of the "wisdom of the crowd". Google uses similar kinds of technology to determine what people want in their search results. Netflix uses similar kinds of technology to determine what you might want to watch.

If your input is [sin(x),cos(x)] do you want a parametric plot (a circle) or two line plots? Do you want one cycle? multiple cycles? What about tan(x) -- where do you clip the y axis? Or do you use a logistic curve to fit it all in a finite space? If your input is [2,4,4,4,5,6,7,8,8,8,9], is that [x,y]=[[1,2],[2,4],[3,4],[4,4]...] -- a bar chart, a scatterplot, or connected by lines? -- or a histogram like [x,y]=[[2,1],[4,3],[5,1], ...] or a smoothed density plot (with what parameters?)? etc etc. > >On Tue, Oct 1, 2019 at 3:49 PM Henry Baker <hb...@pi...> wrote: >I just want to say "plot something interesting from these equations", or >"plot x,y", and the AI/ML system will figure out how to do this. > >I don't want to have to spend a full day reading the Maxima plotting >manual every time, which is about what usually it takes me, since I >only do this every couple of years, and by the next time, I've forgotten >all of the commands and switches. > >At 12:34 PM 10/1/2019, Raymond Toy wrote: >>>>>>> "Henry" == Henry Baker <hb...@pi...> writes: >>  Henry> I don't know about generic AI/ML for Maxima, but I would >>  Henry> appreciate an AI/ML approach to *graphing* and more >>  Henry> generally to *plotting*. >> >>  Henry> There are so many bells & whistles on the plotting >>  Henry> mechanisms that an AI/ML program could exhaustively >>  Henry> memorize & suggest possible plots.
