Scatter plot Memes

The evolution of machine learning knowledge in three stages: Stage 1: "Just some colored dots on a graph." The blissful ignorance of a beginner who hasn't yet fallen down the rabbit hole. Stage 2: "Actually, it's a machine learning model!" The intermediate student recognizes clustering algorithms and feels smug about their newfound knowledge. Stage 3: "This is AI." The exhausted advanced student who's spent so many hours staring at scatter plots they've transcended detailed explanations and just want to graduate already. The perfect visualization of how your brain cells cluster together and then slowly die during a machine learning course. What starts as curiosity ends with existential dread—and they're literally the same scatter plot the entire time!
