Machine learning guides prospectivity; development extends to spacing, completions and timing.
A larger training set establishes scale of inputs. It does not establish forecast accuracy on new acreage or incremental recovery. Development decisions still require economic and geological judgment.
A source grade describes provenance, not independent verification. This is a research profile, not a measure of net return. Report a correction.
