You can basically think of AI as a massively multiverse analysis that can go far beyond a directly applied model. So while yes, technically averages are involved, they’re applied in a way that makes it incredibly naive to call it “just averages”.

Edit: it is especially not “just an average of how many people order a meal” as you had said.
