## Definition

**Regression** is a statistical method for modeling the relationship between one or more input variables and an outcome, used to understand or predict that outcome from the inputs.

In the channel's captured material, _regression_ appears in connection with the **Writing with AI** chapter and specifically the episode featuring **Seth Stephens-Davidowitz**, who wrote a book in 30 days with ChatGPT [^f0797251-c38a-5c80-bbf1-697f29bd3cb8]. In that context, the term carries its standard statistical sense: a way of modeling how one or more input variables relate to an outcome, so you can understand and predict the outcome from the inputs. It is treated as a background analytical tool — the kind of method a data-oriented writer brings to bear when grounding claims in evidence — rather than as a topic explored on its own in the captured material. The channel's usage stays close to that plain meaning; no broader or specialized sense of the term is established in the available evidence, so read it here in its everyday statistical meaning unless the surrounding material says otherwise.
