[D] Where does the 'ML' part of CAUSAL ML come in? (alien.top)

Looks like classic causal inference, the type would see in Pearl or Econometrics. I don't understand where the ML comes in.

Honestly I'm not sure what you are really asking. Could you define Machine Learning in the way you see it? I feel like the answer is too obvious to be the answer you're looking for.

I guess my point is, causal inference has been around for a long time whereas Causal ML just popped up a few years ago. So how is Causal ML different from Causal inference. What are the unique problem Causal ML tries to solve that Causal inference couldn't?
