Well, what you talking about is some ways to use evolutionary algorithms to optimize the parameters of a ML model. But in my eyes, it doesn't mean it is ML. They both share a lot, but they aren't the same. For me, evolutionary algorithms is part of Meta Heuristics, which is part of AI (which ML is also part of). Different areas and sub areas of research do interact with each other. I just mean that the is part is a bit too much in this case.

Trying to force these things into a pure hierarchy sounds nothing short of an exercise in pedantry.

And to what end? You make up your own distinctions that no one else agrees with and you lose your ability to communicate ideas to people because you're talking a different language to them.

If you are so caught up on the "is a" part. Have you studied any programming languages that support "multiple inheritance" ?
