jgw: Notes we were expecting a guest from Personalization TF re the Machine Learning Workshop
... Would assist by identifying purpose of things in web content
... Notes research paper re ML -- how much specific descripts help

jb: Prediction based on generalization worries me re disability -- the peripheray of human experience
... Seems systems tend to rule out options I need

<jasonjgw> Janina: Personalization markup identifies what UI elements are for, and this could asisst in ML learning contexts.

<jasonjgw> Janina suggests adding slides to a presentation at the machine learning workshop noting the usefulness of the personalization work in APA.

jgw: Seems reasonable
... ARIA could also serve, e.g. labels for controls

<jasonjgw> Janina concurs that ARIA could be useful in driving a Web page automatically.
