    I am pretty sure CHATPGPT is not a regression. So I asked it and it confirmed.

    "No, I'm not a regression. I'm a language model designed to assist with a wide range of tasks involving natural language processing, such as answering questions, generating text, and providing information on various topics".

    It seems to me that when I learned data science, just about everything WAS a regression. These days not so much.

    Happy New Year

    Dare I suggest saying that, if regression is about identifying the effects from each predictor on an outcome and trying to explain things, that these days not much is a regression at all

    I do however remember how liberating or simplifying it was during under grad statistics when someone pointed out that everything was just a variant on a linear model though. Like wow. That simplifies things in my head

    thanks Richard. I was aware of the data science one, I will probably use that,  I was wanting something from a peer reviewed Journal.   It is probably a phrase that can be attributed to statisticians in general as I imagine many people have said this over the years.

    Happy New Year Everyone! 

    Does anyone know if there is a reference for  '"Everything is a regression"  Or to whom it can be attributed?
